Update:
On a hunch, I had a thought that the display-style actually gets
changed when the animation is being performed. Turns out I was right.
My HTML originally looked like this:
<div id="product-list-categories">
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
</div>
Updated to:
<div id="product-list-categories">
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
<a href="#" class="category">This</a>
<br style="clear: both;" />
</div>
The <a> tags are all floated left. All I did was add a <br /> tag
beneath them, and suddenly the background stays on during the
animation.
What this means is that the background is not at all disappearing, but
in fact the parent #product-list-categories DIV is somehow losing its
height property (based on the height of the floated contents.
Now I'm not sure if this is a jQuery UI bug or just part of everyday
HTML / CSS complexity. Either way I found a fix :)
