slideDown and slideUp and min-height

[net4794]

When min-height is used in CSS, slideUp and slideDown do not function correctly. Instead of sliding, it will wait the time for it to slide and then just appear or disappear(according to which is used).

It took me about an hour of fidgeting with my jQuery and HTML until I noticed the inline CSS code may have to do with the problem.

$("#notice").delay(1500).slideUp();

<div id="notice" style="min-height:100px;"> asdf<br />asdf<br />asdf </div>

Everything else works, including the 'height' command. Please contact me as soon as this has been patched, thank you!

I'd love to see this get fixed.

Duplicate of #6618, #4623, #4415 (includes a patch to fix) and #1004.

Even gets its own wiki entry: ​http://docs.jquery.com/Tutorials:Getting_Around_The_Minimum_Height_Glitch

Going to disagree strongly with anyone who says it's not a bug; the various duplicates plus the need for a Wiki article to work around the "glitch" mean this one is tripping a lot of folks up.

The use case is: I want to toggle interface elements on and off with a slide or other animation, but the interface elements look bad if they're not at least 200px tall. So I give them a min-height; but, due to the bug, that prevents sliding from working correctly.

Here's a JSFiddle showing the bug still standing in 1.4.4: ​http://jsfiddle.net/mLHb9/

I elaborate on my reasoning here (and receive some well-reasoned objections, though I happen to think they're wrong): ​http://forum.jquery.com/topic/animations-should-temporarily-override-min-height-and-min-width
