I have a div that will fade in and out on hover in FF, but in IE7 it just hides and shows with no animation. Here is my code: #nav-buttons { display:none; width:894px; position:relative; z-index:1000; } ---------- <div id="contents"> <div id="nav-buttons"> <a href="javascript:void(0)" id="left-button"></a> <a href="javascript:void(0)" id="right-button"></a> </div> other html.... </div> ---------- $(document).ready(function() { $("#contents").hover(function() { $("#nav-buttons").fadeToggle("slow"); }); });
