(combobox) Hovereffect doesn't work correct with xhtml as Doctype Hello, I'm using the dhtmlx combobox and need the doctype for xhtml: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> But now I found a problem, the scrollbar for the combobox is looking laggy (with activated hovereffect) when i'm scrolling (only in Internet Explorer 7 [didn't test IE6 or IE8]). If I change the doctype to html like: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> ...everything looking correct. But I need the doctype for xhtml and without activated hovereffect for the combobox is a selection of a option not very userfriendly. Is there any trick or a workaround? Thanks for help and greetings from switzerland, Jonathan If I have a lot of options in a combobox then i can use a scrollbar. With activated mousehover effect then the scrollbar looks laggy... Answer posted by Alex (support) on Sep 24, 2009 03:19 Hello, we have tested combo with this doctype. The problem occurs only in IE7 ( In IE6 and IE8 it wasn't reproduced). We'll investigate the issue. If any solution is possible, we will provide it. Answer posted by Jonathan Hügli on Sep 25, 2009 00:18 Thank you for the information... I hope you will find a solution soon! Answer posted on Sep 29, 2009 22:38 Hello, Is any solution figured out yet? A solution/workaround is very important for me (not only for me).... Thanks, Jonathan Answer posted by Stanislav (support) on Oct 02, 2009 10:09 It seems, that with xhtml doctype applied, IE re-render whole list of options , each time when selection is changed ( which is basically just the color change ) - most probably it is a some glitch in IE7 rendering engine. Please try to use the attached js file ( purposed to be used with other 2.5 files, please inform if you need an update for 2.1 version ) , it uses different marking method and must not cause slowness for IE7 Attachments (1)
