[jQuery] Re: Animate forces display:block?

Try setting the width of a non-floated element that has display: inline with CSS and see what you get. I haven't been able to change the width of a non-floated, inline element with CSS, so I don't imagine it can be done with JavaScript either. 

waseem's suggestion is probably your best bet.

would it be possible for you to use a float instead of display inline ?

Hi all,

I'm trying to animate the width of a box, but I'm noticing that during
the animation jQuery is setting the element's display property to
'block' (which is not what I want, I want 'inline'). At the completion
of the animation it resets it to the desired setting. I've tried over-
riding this behavior by including display:'inline' as one of the
animation parameters, but no dice. Any other ideas? Is this supposed
to happen or is it a bug?
