I've been putting this off for several days now, waiting to check dev.rubyonrails.org before I posted here but it is still down.
I am using Effect.Appear and it is working great except in Safari where it fades in and then disappears. I traced it back to the Element.setOpacity function. Is there a reason why Safari is singled out and given a null value for opacity instead of 1 or 0.999999? This is where the problem is happening and can be seen directly from the demo page itself (http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/CombinationEffectsDemo). I simply changed this line: Element.setStyle(element, { opacity: (/Gecko/.test(navigator.userAgent) && !/Konqueror|Safari|KHTML/.test(navigator.userAgent)) ? 0.999999 : null }); to this: Element.setStyle(element, { opacity: 0.999999 }); And this working perfectly for me in Safari 2 and 1.3 and it didn't hurt any of the other supported browsers. I don't have 1.2 to test it in. However, I believe that Element.setStyle should have the responsiblity of normalizing special cases like opacity.
