.fadeIn() - IE 6+7 - inline-elements

[sschulze]

A problem occurs in IE version 6 + 7 when trying to fade in an inline element.

In my case: <span>here is some text and </span><span id="someid" style="display:none">some textual information without any tags</span> ... <script> $('span#someid').fadeIn(750); </script>

The code above will fade in the second span-element - but it's displayed as block-element (means: line break in front of it), whereas the firefox seems to work properly: it just fades in the text in 2nd span element without inserting a break.

You should upgrade to jQuery 1.3+ - this has since been fixed.
