#1135 closed bug (wontfix)

Doctype causing problems for animate() under IE7

Description (last modified by scott.gonzal)

If you try the following HTML in IE7 and click the link to animate the text in the div to the color blue, the background color of the div seems to dissapear.

I did some testing and have determined that this problem only occurs when you include any doctype. Also, this problem does not occur in Firefox or IE6. 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
                      "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>

<head>

<style>
#foo {
 background-color:red;
}
</style>

<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="interface.js"></script>

</head>

<body>

<div id="foo">
  foo
</div>

<br /><br />

<a href="#" id="link">here</a>

<script>
$("#link").click(function(){
 $('#foo').animate({color: 'blue'}, 100);
 return false;
});
</script>

</body>
</html>

I did some thorough debugging and was able to identify the exact statement which is causing the problem in ifx.js 

y.overflow = oldOverflow;

I have yet to determine why this is causing the problem or what can be done about it.

If I comment out 

y.overflow = 'hidden';

or 

y.overflow = oldOverflow;

It seems to function as expected, although I would guess those statements are needed for other animation types.

Interface is no longer supported; consider switching to ​jQuery UI.
