I think I found it! In IE5 mode: navigator.appName: Microsoft Internet Explorer navigator.appVersion: 4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT 4.0) navigator.userAgent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT 4.0) Opera 5.0 [en] Do you notice the Opera at the end? In all the modes of the browser it appends this "Opera" at the end? It's really beautiful, isn't it?

I've been testing Opera and I haven't found the way to add elements after onLoad, as Dan said in a previous post. So it seems we should create widgets before onLoad. But I haven't been able to change a DIV content either. I've tried innerHTML, write and it seems that document doesn't support any of the createXXX functions. Opera hasn't updated the specs of the DOM compliance at their site (They have only the Opera 4 specs), so its very difficult to know how it can be done. I believe that DynAPI can't be ported to Opera. I hope I'm wrong!

else if (ua.indexOf("OS/2")>-1) this.platform = "OS/2";

Regards!
BTW, the archives of opera-users mailing list can be found
http://web.opera.com/archives/public/opera-users/2000-December/
There are some posts about javascript, one of them is very interesting
because its from a guy which want to change the contents of a span element.
The point is that all the posts says javascript doesn't work, and I think
that opera staff must also be suscribed to that list, don't they? So if they
don't reply this guy to tell him how to do it I must think it can't be done.
To sum up, I think all we can do is create all the widgets before onLoad (as
Dan said) and neither create anything nor change the contents of anything.
Regards,
Josep

Before I found DynAPI and I was stumbling along trying to create inline code
that handles all browsers - I went through the Opera site and couldn't find
anything to do with their implementation of CSS or the DOM or anything else.
Has anyone been able to find documents on their site that give developers more
of an idea?
BTW - I think the major difference between 4 and 5 is the free-ness and the
inclusion of ads in the interface - obviously bug fixes and stuff - but mostly
that... With Opera being free - maybe we'll see an increase in it's usage!

I spent a great deal of 2000 'hoovering' here, more so, then making any valid contributions. But I feel I am reaching a point that I can begin to shift from 'sucker of brain-calories spent by others' to 'modest personal brain-calorie, blow-pipe' (please excuse the metaphors). In general, I have two areas of interest that I am putting forward in an attempt to glean interest and possibly divine some groups working in these areas of interest (prior posts have occurred related to both of these areas by Dan, Bon3z and Richard). (1) More Robust Animation System (2) Integration Platform - PHP, DynAPI & MySQL (1) After spending a great deal of time toying with Dan's new animation system as well as playing with various techniques of chaining animation (ala Richard) one both appreciates the power and is simultaneously left wanting more. I am interested in pursuing the development of a more robust animation system (maybe timeline based) as well as more animation widgetry. (2) Most robust backend systems leave the client-side wearing concrete shoes. I think we have a tremendous opportunity to be both 'back-end powerful' and 'client-side dynamic' using MySQL, PHP and DynAPI as an implementation system. This creates the potential for self-animating polls/presentation information, robust user preference modules, etc. Both these areas are related, in that (1) tends to enhance (2) and visa versa. If you have an interest in further discussion this thread is meant to act as a start-point. Thanks Ray |

If you generated a path with a (-) negative number in setAngleIncrement
method (to allow you to determine direction, clockwise(-) or counter
clockwise(+) it would freeze up during this line "for (var
a=this.angle;a<=this.angle+Math.PI*2;a+=this.angleinc) {" in the
generatePath method of circle.js. This method is critical because it allows
you to inherit both 'loop' and 'reset' functionality from pathanim.js and
have some real fun. Now you setAngleIncrement as a positive for speed and
use setDirection (+ or - 1) to set path direction. Tested in both IE and NS
on WinME.
added/changed the following lines. Full js file attached.
____________________________________________________________________________
____________
this.direction = 1
CircleAnimation.prototype.setDirection = function (d) {
this.direction = d;
CircleAnimation.prototype.generatePath = function(centerX,centerY) {
if (centerX==null) centerX = this.dlyr!=null? this.dlyr.x : 0;
if (centerY==null) centerY = this.dlyr!=null? this.dlyr.y : 0;
var path = [];
var i = 0;
for (var a=this.angle;a<=this.angle+Math.PI*2;a+=this.angleinc) {
path[i] = Math.round(centerX + this.hradius*Math.cos(this.direction*a));
path[i+1] = Math.round(centerY - this.vradius*Math.sin(this.direction*a));
i+=2;
}
return path;
};

The site will have, basically, two implementations, one in Flash, and another in DHTML (my part :). Both will access the same MySQL database, though they will probably have different layouts/design because it's supposed to showcase different approaches to a web site, using the best both approaches can deliver. So I for one will have material to discuss on this thread. best, NunoF |
