type in IE looks oddly pixelated

[European Animal]

Hello
I have the site:

http://www.tstorey.com

the bold headers look fine in all browsers but in Internet Explorer they aren't very legible and appear oddly pixelated.

Anyone know why?

Haha!  that's ie for you.  nothing to do with core

arial renders a little better than helv in ie, but keep in mind that 10 percent of the market uses macs, and it's much more fun to design for them.

The reason for this is actually because of the way CORE animates with jQuery and how IE does everything poorly. The problem is that CORE animates the fade-in's using jQuery's animate opacity. When it fades in opacity in IE is set to filter:alpha(opacity:100) or something like that allowing it to be visible. However, this causes text to display poorly. The fix for this is to code the animation to fade in with the opacity change and then remove the opacity style. I hope that was clear. Unfortunately, I know how to fix it but I don't know how to do it as I am not that skilled with javascript/jQuery. If there is anybody out there that can do this it would be great. If you search for this problem on google you will find stuff on it.

problem can be solved very easily

let's ays that you're text which your are fading in or out is inside a p tag <p>lorem ipsm</p>

in css give the p tag a white background color.

that should solve you're problem.

Brilliant, the CSS white background works like a charm, many thanks for the tip
