Suggested CSS tweak for IE6 browsers

Chris Bailey-2
I've noticed that IE6 inserts an extra blank line at the top of your form
elements - this is because of the xforms-loading-none span element.

The css tweak below fixes this problem.
.xforms-loading-none
{
        position:absolute; /* needed to render correctly in IE6 */
}


Chris.

That must be a reminiscence from the days when the loading indicator
was displayed as a line on top of the form (not an overlay), and we
wanted to have some space reserved for that line when no text was
displayed.

I just changed this to use display: none, which is a tat simpler, and
clearly says what we want. Thanks for the suggestion! The
corresponding bug is:
