IE looses cleartype when using overlay

Posted: Nov 16, 2009

If you have enabled cleartype in Windows XP and is running IE.
Try the demos of overlay on this site and you'll see that the text isn't using the beatiful cleartype font. This is obviously an IE bug... but is there a solution för this?

Yeah don't use IE or better still move to Mac OS X :) Cleartype in the browser really does suck.

Great advise! ..at home I already run a new iMac and I love it, but the problem is that I use this at work and IE is standard there. Yeah I know it sucks!

If anyone has a solution to this problem I would appreciate it!

This is sort of an old post, but I had this same issue with IE and solved it with this:



var api = $("#test").overlay({closeOnClick: true,oneInstance: true, api: true, effect: 'apple',top: sTop,left: sLeft});
$("#test").fadeIn(100, function() {
    api.load();if($.browser.msie==true){this.style.removeAttribute('filter')} 
    setTimeout(function() {
        $("#test .details *").css("visibility","visible");
        $("#test .details *").slideDown(200, function() {
        $(this).show();
    });
    }, 1000);
});

Can you make everyone else in the world ditch IE?

In the meantime, is there any real solution to this?
