show() on inline-block <span>

[frediani.adrien@…]

Seems there's a bug on the show() method when applied on a span element that has css 'display:inline-block' property.

In that case somehow the span element remains hidden.

Here a reduced testcase. ​http://jsbin.com/orupof/11/edit

Another details, it's only reproducible when calling show() on a off-the-dom element, so here ​http://jsbin.com/orupof/12/edit, it works fine

when calling show() on a off-the-dom element

• The CSS applies to the document where it resides.
• The element isn't yet in the document.

Why did you think the CSS would a apply to an element not yet in the document?

[frediani.adrien@…]

Yes, right, so there's no way to handle this pb other than manually setting the css to inline-block. So I guess that's not a bug, but totally normal behaviour.

thanks
