even if the object is not visible. Does anyone have any ideas as to why?

    Hi Doug,

    _isVisible only checks for the display and visibility properties. It is possible that inspite of this, an element is invisible, due to the following reasons:
    1) The size of the element is zero
    2) The element is behind some other element (another element with higher z-index overlaps this element)
    3) The element is positioned outside of the display area.
    4) The element is actually visible according DOM but due to some browser delay, has not rendered. (This is a remote possibility)

    We will need to see which of these applies to your case.

    Regards,
    Narayan

    I will look into each. Another possibility is that based on workflow, it is visible even though I had not "anticipated" it being visible (user issue)
