jquery animate not working with flash object

[zayatzz]

i have simple code which animates height of flash object. it works just fine with jquery 1.3.2, but is not working with jquery1.4.2.

code: <script type="text/javascript" src="​http://path/to/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript">

function openMediaPlayer() {

$('#flashMovie').animate({'height':'333px'});

} function closeMediaPlayer() {

$('#flashMovie').animate({'height':'80px'});

} jQuery(function($){

$('#videoholder').bind('mouseenter', function(){

openMediaPlayer();

}); $('#videoholder').bind('mouseleave', function(){

closeMediaPlayer();

});

});

</script> <div id="videoholder" style="height:80px;width:412px;"> <object width="412" height="80" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" id="flashMovie" name="flashMovie" style="height: 80px;" data="​http://path/to/Player.swf"><param name="menu" value="false"><param name="bgcolor" value="#666666"><param name="allowFullscreen" value="true"><param name="flashvars" value="playlistURL=​http://path/to/Player/data/playlist.xml"></object> </div>

hmmph. guess i should have waited with posting this. As it was explained later at stackoverflow - its not abug after all.

Later confirmed by bug submitter as not being a jQuery core bug. StackOverflow discussion assists in resolution of the above.

Closing ticket.
