[Dynapi-Dev] Updates for Box model fix & BorderManager

[Raymond I. <xw...@ya...>]

Hello Everyone,

I've managed to get the Box Model Fix functions into
the api. Please see the attached zip file for the full
update. 

Please test and let me how well the new setBorder()
function performs

Kevin,

I've noticed that your Frame object did not add a
setBorder function to the DynLayer class. It seems to
be a separated object which inherits the from the
DynLayer class. Could we more the Frame Class into a
separate file called frame.js? This would make
bordermanager.js a little smaller. We could then use
dynapi.gui.Frame to include the frame class.

Is there an example for the Skin Class found in
highlighter.js or is it a part of the Frame Class?


PS. In my test results I find the new setBorder() much
faster than setInnerBorder. In cases where it took
1500 ms it's now taking 600 ms.
Note: The box model fix for NS4 is still being worked
on. NS4 will be using DynLayers to create borders,
etc.

I'll try to have a look at this.

Agreed, split it into gui.Frame. Yes I preferred to give the
Frame a setBorder and addContent methods. So it's clear
the frame (border) would be outside the content. Doing
a set(Outer)Border or addFrame method to a DynLayer
would be ok I think. Perhaps more difficult to implement
if I remember!

Yes the Frame class uses Skins (extends Highlighter) for
the sides / corners (borders) so they can be a solid color
or textured / tiled using images. Using a skin graft will
dynamically change the skin style/theme (style manager)?

Yes css should be fast. Though it would be nice to allow
use of DynLayers (Skins, set(Outer)Border or addFrame )
in other browsers if a developer wanted that way of setting
a frame border image / texture / tile / theme / style or what
ever we call it.

Things seem to work ok. But I don't have IE 5 ??? the
version with the broken box model to test. But great to
see outer borders now. Just need to use layers for NS4
but like the Frame class does with Skin maybe?

Ok I'll add these changes to CVS. I think IE 5 should
work as I've tested this under IE6

I think it might have an impact on the FlashSound
Class. We'll have to give it a try
