Cufon.now() not working

[Brian]

Are there any known circumstances in which Cufon.now() fails to
prevent the flicker issue in IE? With the following in my document
head:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/cufon.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/Metro_400.font.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">Cufon.replace('h1');</script>

And this just before the closing </body> tag:

<script type="text/javascript"> Cufon.now(); </script>

...I'm still seeing the flicker of unstyled content in IE 8. Hoping
I'm overlooking something simple...

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Can you provide a link to the problem?

If you don't want to paste it here, please send it to Simo direct.

You should be able to find his address in the mailing list.

I haven't encountered any problems with this in IE8 except when dynamically loading content. (e.g. with AJAX request)

Hi,

We are running a site and used cufon but it is not appearing in IE6
and IE7 as the documentation says.

Can you please help us?

The name of the site is www.ameodia.com

Best regards,
Rashmi

Hi Rashmirekha

 

It looks like you haven't included a selector engine which is required for older browsers to apply cufon on selectors that are not a single tag name.

Your selector in your document is currently  Cufon.replace('h1,h2,h3,p,ul,LI'); which will only work in IE 8, Firefox 3.5 and Safari 3.2+.

Please see the following url for some more information including an explaination of how to fix it. (include a selector engine such as sizzle, prototype, jquery etc)
http://wiki.github.com/sorccu/cufon/faq#faq-1

If you don't want to include a selector engine, you could expand your cufon.replace statement into multiple calls e.g. Cufon.replace('h1'); Cufon.replace('h2'); ...
