yes, target is hidden:
I'm using Autocompleter.selectbox (a scriptaculus plugin)
http://www.glanzani.com.ar/select/
I had to change Autocompleter behaviur to solve this issue, but I
preferred to solve the problem where it happens (as it's wrong how it
is calculated in ie8 the delta, not the fact that the target is
hidden)
could you test that if target isn't hidden my solution fails?
If it's so I think it would be needed to change the if inserting
target display hidden as a condition
