Do they set display: none or visibility: hidden?
I’m pretty sure display: none takes the element out of the normal flow, whilst visibility: hidden just hides the element but still has a reserved space for it.
Should I just go download the unpacked version and study it or does someone have a quick answer?
It uses
display.Edit: And from John Sheehan’s comment on this answer, which I agree with:
Edit 2: Comments have mentioned using Firebug to discover what is happening. Indeed, I actually went to the jQuery docs and used the Safari Web Inspector to see what happened on the
hide()demo to be sure of my answer.
