Description

Using a custom template a have the following problem in IE7 and IE8 (IE6 not tested):
When I hover over a content element, the background is not always gray and the edit bar is not always shown, instead both flickers: gray and shown, not gray and not shown, gray and shown.....

If I move the mouse left and right in empty space (no text below), the element is always recognized correctly as active.

But if I move it from top to bottom and back, it flickers. It flickers, when I hover above the place, where the html-tag for the text below ends and there where a new html-tag begins, e.g. a new paragraph, a new li-Tag and at the end of each of them.

When I stop moving the mouse, it always is as it should be.

I have this problem with IE8, TYPO3 4.3, newest trunk of feeditadvanced (= Rev. 1780), no TV.

On the same site this is not a problem with FF 3.5.

This seems not to be caused by some of my custom CSS rules:
- There is a standard stylesheet and
- a stylesheet with fixes which I only include for IE.
I now deleted them both and the flickering still is there.

I also have this flickering when I use the candidate template from the sysext statictemplates.

Sounds like it might be problem with event propagation in IE or the the behavior library that triggers hover events since IE doesn't fire hover for divs and stuff like that. Will look into it.

Is not always reproducable, seemed to be fixed some days ago.
Fixing Ext JS in #9332 did not fix this. It still flickers.
Might also have to do with code from perfectlightbox.

This flickering is also present in IE7 (IE6 not tested).

An update of Whatever:hover (#11103) does not influence this problem. It is still present in IE7 and IE8.

Christopher,
Could you test this again after the ExtJS upgrade?

Thanks!
Jeff
