datePicker 1.82 & 1.73 in safari 4/x -5.x/Flash 10.1 shifts all flash content on page left when initialized

[frostywd]

This is very specific but after installing Flash 10.1 I see that a flash menu and picture gallery shift and jump to the left about 6-10 pixels in my case. Interestingly enough, clicking on the date field (causing the calendar to appear) puts everything back into it's place until the page is reloaded.

I've tracked the problem to one css field in the core.css:

.ui-helper-hidden-accessible { position: absolute; left: -99999999px; }

Commenting the above out fixes everything.

To verify it was only the datePicker, I comment out the function that initialized the dateField and the problem disappeared.

To be clear, this is only with Flash 10.1 & Safari on a Mac. Chrome and FF on the mac with the same 10.1 plugin work fine.

I've tried the webkit nightly build and the problem is still there.

Afaik this has nothing to do with Flash. I've seen the same issue elsewhere where no flash was involved. Need a simple testcase.

This code is no longer in datepicker, and we only support Safari 5.1 and 6.0 at this point. Please let us know if you are still experiencing this bug on the latest version of jQuery UI. Thanks again for contributing!
