Detail

This plugin surrounds the calendar button with a span of this kind:
<span class="twikiMakeVisible"
...
</span>

The twikiMakeVisibleXXX classes are hidden by default CSS and only exposed if there is a TWISTY on the same page, which would then trigger the twikiMakeVisibleXXX tags to be uncovered. Outchie.

The solution for now is to remove this extra span:

Arthur, can you please comment on the use of the twikiMakeVisibleXXX and similar CSS classes, i.e. if there are no TWISTIES on the same page.

twikiMakeVisible CSS classes are meant to not show interface parts that rely on javascript (regardless of a TWISTY tag). But since we also have a guideline to not make default skin rely on javascript, these CSS classes are not in default skin, only in pattern skin.

In css.pattern.tmpl I have this:

%TMPL:DEF{"javascriptaffectedstyle"}%<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURLPATH%/%SYSTEMWEB%/TWikiJavascripts/twikiStyles.js"></script>%TMPL:END%

Hm, does only work on 4.2. Can't we dismiss this css-js interaction?
