My jQuery slideToggle() experiment

Can anybody tell me why my boxes "jump" when i open them? The first half they slide, the rest they "jump"??

Thanks, Johannes

Its a simple fix. Add this CSS rule to your stylesheet (Tested in Firebug to work, and from my past experience with this problem, this is the fix):

ol.message_list { position: relative }

It is a CSS bug, not a jQuery bug per se.
