MapYourBuddies - IE6 fix and a tiny and neat feature added ;)

Tags:

After "The Big Facebook Logout Challenge was solved", I worked on a little bug fix for the Internet Explorer Version 6. Since I added the DIV-Boxes into the Info Windows the Info Window was displayed in the IE6 far to width. Now I set the DIV-Box width just to a fixed value.

Also I recognized on the laptop from my girlfriend (who has millions of friends in Facebook) that our page is loaded but - based on the huge number of friends that needs to be loaded from Facebook- the friends list remains empty for a whole while (around 7 to 10 seconds) until the friends begin to appear.

Therefore I added a temporary "Loading ..." text node that I remove, after all friends are loaded.

var friendslist = document.getElementById("friendslist");
var LoadNode = document.getElementById("FLloading");
friendslist.removeChild(LoadNode);

Like always, more in the weekly presentation ;)
