IE and Animated Collapsible DIV

**rebelbwb** · 09-26-2007, 07:11 PM

1) Script Title:Animated Collapsible DIV

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...edcollapse.htm

3) Describe problem: In latest version of IE upon closing the div or slide up or however you want to describe it, the div will look like it's closing and then it gets almost closed and pops back open

Any ideas on how to correct?

Seems to work fine in latest ver of FF

I am having this exact issue. The script works in Firefox but is buggy in IE (6 and 7). On the initial page load, the DIV is open (though I specify it not to be) and when you click the link to open the DIV, it disappears suddenly and animates back open. When you click to close it, it closes but then shows back up instantly once done closing. I have this running in a php file that has a few variables and some other javascripts running but have disabled the other javascripts and only made the echos of the variables in php (everything else is pure html). Any suggestions? The examples work in IE fine, I just can't get them to work in the context of my page.

IE is a little finicky with this script, requiring at least a valid URL HTML 4.01 transitional DOCTYPE and, if not valid markup, at least not markup that is wildly invalid. You can validate your markup here:

http://validator.w3.org/

But, even with some, or a lot of errors, you should be OK as long as you have a basically valid structure for your document. That means one and only one of each of the following type tags laid out in the following order:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

</head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

If any of you folks need more help:

Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic code so we can check it out.
