[Dynapi-Dev] removing layers

[Chris G. <chr...@ms...>]

I'm new to the product so please bear with me.
Environment: 3.0 Beta/IE6

When using the addChild() method to move a dynlayer to another dynlayer =
parent the elm and it child elements are first destroyed and then =
re-created. Is there a reason for destroying the element layers?
Also during this process child layers with images intermittently stopped =
loading causing IE to spin until the image load timed-out. Is this a =
known issue?=20

I modified the _remove method to stop the elm from being destroyed and =
modified _create method to re-use the same elm.=20
something like the following:
  if(this.elm) {
   parentElement =3D this.parent.elm;
   parentElement.appendChild(this.elm);
   DynLayer._assignElement(this,this.elm);
   DynElement._flagCreate(this);
  }

This considerably speeded up the re-draw process and seems to have fixed =
the image load issue.

Comments welcome?
