Hi all I''ve started using some of the scriptaculous effects here, and have noticed something weird. Whenever I use one of the effects, it causes many of the fonts on the same page to rendered with a lighter weight (ie: "less bold"). Has anyone else noticed a similar effect in Firefox? I use 1.5b1 on Mac. This seems to be a common bug in moz-based browsers, as Camino does the same thing. I just tried it in Opera and there was no problem. I''d try in Safari but I use behaviour.js to attach my scripts to links, and it''s not working atm in Safari for some reason. For example, see http://dagsolutions.ca/before.png and http://dagsolutions.ca/after.png . The first is before I click the link that causes a Fade, the second is after.

That''s a font rendering bug that happens in the Mozilla (Gecko) engine only. AFAIK, there''s no workaround. Hopefully they fix that...
