My friend Scott Kellum, design director at Treesaver, has now sent me this refactored code for hiding text, which I hereby christen the Kellum Method:
.hide-text {
text-indent: 100%;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
}
Really long strings of text will never flow into the container because they always flow away from the container.
Performance is dramatically improved because a 9999px box is not drawn. Noticeably so in animations on the iPad 1.
