@Andrea : thanks for normal tone, but again somehow you fundamentaly misunderstood me ? If anything you (probably) followed my code through ;o)
One of the strengths of jQuery is: It smooths the sharply uneven surface of cross browser javascript. If I post something that does not mean I want to do it that way and no other way. I simply stumbled upon this issue which , I thought, might be interesting for the jQ team, because this is yet another "feature" that works in some browsers and does not work in others. 99% of jQuery are much more concerned to have code that works and that uses jQuery, than to engage in W3C spec minutiae... My example/finding uses somewhat esoteric code, but the issue of CHROME not allowing getComputedStyle() on non-attached new elements, might break some other part of Sizzle or jQ core, so I thought I report it... --DBJ On Oct 24, 1:23 am, Andrea Giammarchi <andrea.giammar...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sat, Oct 24, 2009 at 12:22 AM, DBJDBJ <dbj...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Well for the FF team this was not meaningless, since it is possible to > > set/get css value on the non-attached newly created dom element in FF > > and then get to it through getComputedStyle() > > You just have to follow in the Firebug and Chrome console, what I have > > posted initally.
