What is that delete command?
delete array[which.id]?
8an

this is to deal with arrays where the elements are known be name.  eg
document.all['id']
there is no need to continue if this is the type of element.

Speed optimization can always be introduced. In fact, the latest precreation
code that caused some old bugs to reappear and some people to complain about the
API going backwards was introduced in order to speed up layer creation,
something that was not a problem until people started wanting hundreds, even
thousands of layers onscreen.

I've been tempted to suggest this many times but I didn't want to spawn another
"code split-up" argument. Some critical methods like, say, moveTo or setSize
might speed up by doing.:

if(is.ns) DynLayer.prototype.moveTo = function A
else DynLayer.prototype.moveTo = function B

I'll try myself in see what happens

Hello

IE accept more events than those declared in DynAPI (for exemple
onmouseenter , onresizestart ...) how could I modify the file events.js so
that DynAPI could work with this new event. I want to make listener on a
Dynlayer with this new event.

In events.js, I have modify the fct
DynLayer.prototype.captureMouseEvents
with this line
 elm.onmouseenter
=elm.onmousedown=elm.onmouseup=elm.onmouseover=elm.onmouseout=elm.onclick=el
m.ondblclick=DynLayer.prototype.EventMethod;

and the fct
DynDocument.prototype.captureMouseEvents
with this line
 this.doc.onmouseenter
=this.doc.onmousemove=this.doc.onmousedown=this.doc.onmouseup=this.doc.oncli
ck=this.doc.ondblclick=DynDocument.prototype.EventMethod;

and the fct
DynDocument.prototype.releaseMouseEvents
with this line
 this.doc.onmouseenter =this.doc.onmousemove = this.doc.onmousedown =
this.doc.onmouseup = this.doc.onclick = this.doc.ondblclick = function(e)
{ return false };

I have try to make a dynlayer and an eventlistener like this

mylayer=new DynLayer(null,400,100,50,50);
mylayer.setBgColor('red')
mylayer.setVisible(true)

var l = new EventListener(mylayer);
l.onmouseenter = function(e) {
 var o = e.getTarget();
 alert('EventListener onmouseenter )
}

mylayer.addEventListener(mylayer);

but nothing happens, if someone could help me, I will apreciate.

Thanks.

I would not recommend modifiying events.js
You COULD extend events.js (the same way events.js extends Dynlayer.js)
and put your code in IE_events.js or some such.
