RE: [Dynapi-Dev] precreation NS and IE

[Albani, A. <And...@bm...>]

Pascal,

Since you are familiar with layer creation, perhaps you could help me.
I would like to place layers relative to other objects in the page. How can
I do this?

I have tried putting a relative "DIV" in the page and then adding the layers
as children. But on Nestcape 4, the layer is damaged when I resize the
browser window.

Could you please help me?

Thanks!
Andy

Finally got around doing some coding again, I started with Dan's precreation
code and implementing it into Dynacore. I fixed the IE5+ part, I haven't
tested IE4 but I don't think there are many differences in the style sheets
and layer creation.. so it should work :)

I've attached the code (only the pieces needed).. still can't get CVS
working correctly, and have stopped trying, so here's the patch, hopefully
someone else can implement it.


cya, and merry christmass everyone!

Instead of adding your layers as children of the relative layer, you might
try to get the relative layer's x and y position on the page and then use
those values as the coordinates for a moveTo() call in your onLoad function.
This is assuming you're able to hard code the relative div so that it exists
before the onLoad gets started. See this page
http://scottandrew.com/index.php?today/dhtml_w3c.html and scottandrew.com in
general for further details.

Your previous post mentioned something about things getting messed up in
Netscape after a resize. Having something like this after your
DynAPI.onLoad() function should take care of that:

DynAPI.onResize=function(){
	location.reload()
}

[Dynapi-Dev] Pretty off topic

[Jared N. <ja...@aa...>]

can anyone tell me how to make this work in NS. I need to clip a banner
served to me by an ad agency to exactly fit inside 468/60 dimensions:

<div style="position:relative; width:468px; height:60px; margin:0px;
clip:(0px,0px,468px,60px); overflow:hidden;" width="468" height="60"></div>

this works wonderfully in IE, in NS4.7, it just hides the image - is it a
clipping issue in NS?
