[jQuery] Odd behavior calling height() or width() on a page with flash content

2008-01-07 Thread Tobias Parent
OK, this is strange, at best. I'm trying to use the clueTip plugin for some titles on a page that plays video content in a flash player, in the event that the title has exceeded a given length. clueTip works fine, but it's triggering a redraw of the flash content in FF. Working fine in IE. I
