Ruby Forum Rails Spinoffs (closed, excessive spam) > Scriptaculous: how to keep element space?

Hello everybody,

I hope I am at the right place here with my question, otherweise
please accept my apologies.

I searched a lot for my question and did not find an answer, so I
would be very happy if you could help me out maybe.

I am using Effect.Fade for on element. Everythings works fine, but
when the element is faded out, its space it no longer used and
therefore other elements move and change their size in way that I
don't want. Is there an option to let Effects.Fade do its work but not
set "display" to "none", but instead "visibility" to "hidden"?

Thanks a lot!!

Hi,

Last week you would have been in the right place.  But we've started
transitioning to a new, better-named, hopefully-spam-free group for
Prototype and script.aculo.us:

   http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-scriptaculous/

   prototype-scriptaculous@googlegroups.com

Could you please post your question there instead?  Thanks!  People
might still answer here, but probably not for all that much longer...
