Blackboard doesn't work on all browsers. If we don't
offer a center layer as the doc attribute of the layer/div
frame, the content will be clipped under the layer borders.
Perhaps this can be a simple border widget with external
content enabled.

The user can implement their own api as I have had to.
It's the only way to find out why some dynapi ideas
don't work. I'll try and get something working for the
getElmWidth/Height or getContentWidth/Height problem
and with setClass cross browser.

NS4 is a pain if style sheets are used with a <layer> tag,
only left,top / width,height can be dynamically changed,
bgcolor, z-index and visibility become read-only. So this
breaks setBgColor/setZIndex/setVisible :-( This work is
taking up a lot of my time at the moment. So sorry for
any delay for the June release date.
