[thelist] cause of flickering in Firefox?

I did a quick google search and found the following:

"The style definition looks a bit more complicated then required as it
takes a number of browsers into account. For browsers supporting the
CSS3 color module, the opacity: 0 - 1.0; setting is enough. This is
currently supported by FireFox 0.9 and Safari 1.2. For Internet Explorer
we need the filter:alpha(opacity=0-100);. For other mozilla based
browsers you need to use the proprietary -moz-opacity: 0 - 1.0 ;. 

<style type="text/css">
a.opacity-link img { 
   filter:alpha(opacity=80);
   -moz-opacity: 0.8;
   opacity: 0.8;
}
a.opacity-link:hover img { 
   filter:alpha(opacity=100);
   -moz-opacity: 1.0;
   opacity: 1.0;
}
</style>

I’m quite happy with this result. Only one drawback is image flickering
in FireFox."


I took a brief look at your css, but didn't see any "opacity"
attributes.  So this could very well mean nothing at all.  I'm sending
it because there is a small chance it could be helpful.

Cheers,

John
