Rails spinoffs - Mar 2007 - Prototype & opacity 0.99999

Prototype sets opacity to 0.99999 rather than 1.0 in Gecko browsers,
apparently to avoid flickering.
Can anyone give me an example where this flickering occurs?  I can''t
reproduce it, even after removing the ''workaround''.

The reason I ask is that I''m struggling with overlaying Flash content
on top of a page, some of which has opacity 0.99999 due to this fix.
I''m wondering what I''m breaking by monkeypatching Prototype to
set an
opacity of null rather than 0.99999....


Cheers,
Jon

This happens in (at least) Firefox < 1.5.
