Re: [Dynapi-Widgetdev] "Menu" list.js widget fixes

[Nicola M. <nic...@ho...>]

the problem is that unless we use a setTimeout in the createElement() for 
netscape 6 there is no way to get the getContentWidth() and Height() to work 
in ns 6 the problem with that tough is that if you have very complex widget 
ns 6 just will never finish creating  'em
the problem is not with the DynAPI it's with the browser itself
(damn it!)

so the only fix I can think of is to to have a ns6SetSize() in the widget 
itself that will take care of the list size for ns 6

I haven't look at list,js so I'm just giving some idea not sure how it works

u might wanna try to change this on ur setHTML it might help u too:
DynLayer.prototype.setHTML=function(html) {
	this.html=(typeof html=='string')?html:'' //OLD: this.html=html?html:''
	if (!this.created) return
    this.invokeEvent("beforeload")
    this.elm.innerHTML=this.html

    if (is.ns) html=(this.w==null)?'<NOBR>'+this.html+'</NOBR>':this.html
    if (is.ns4) {
        this.doc.open()
        this.doc.write(html)
        this.doc.close()
        for (i in this.doc.images) this.doc.images[i].lyrobj=this
    } else if (is.ns5) {
        while (this.elm.hasChildNodes()) 
this.elm.removeChild(this.elm.firstChild)
        var r=this.elm.ownerDocument.createRange()
        r.selectNodeContents(this.elm)
        r.collapse(true)
        var df=r.createContextualFragment(html)
        this.elm.appendChild(df)
        for (i in this.doc.images) this.doc.images[i].lyrobj=this.elm
    } else for (i in this.elm.all.tags("img")) 
{if(i=='length')this.elm.all.tags("img")[i].lyrobj=this}

    this.invokeEvent("load")
}

what this does it puts a <NOBR> tag around the html of a layer so that if u 
don't specified the size of the layer it makes it grow any way to the html 
size

ciao
