Has anyone experienced this bug with IE and Firefox on the PC?
I'm going to strip down my page to a demo of the problem, but for now
you can at least experience the bug at:
http://70.87.111.130/~helga/blog/home
It kicks in at the five second mark (which is when the effect actually
begins).
As I said, I'm going to try to isolate the bug more concretely, but I
just wanted to see if Effect.Opacity causing different font rendering
is a known issue across all platforms. I've only been seeing
discussions of it regarding OSX, but it looks like it's clearly
happening under IE6 and Firefox 2 on the PC.
Regards,
Matt
