layer1.addChild(layer2);

First, thanks a lot for checking this problem. 

Your test code does work. To reproduce my problem, please 
unzip my attached file and put it in "test" folder under the 
dynapi's "examples" folder. "desktop.html" is the entrance 
page. Please follow steps below to see the problem:

==========================================
Problem for IE6:

Step 1: browse page: "desktop.html" and remember what's in 
the the lower frame of the screen.

Step 2: click "Set Desktop" button to redraw the lower frame 
of the screen. You can see how the yellow layer and blue 
layer disappear.

==========================================
BTW, I just found another problem for the same code when 
running it in firefox 1.0.1. Below are the steps to reproduce 
the problem:

Step 1: browse page: "desktop.html" and remember what's in 
the upper frame of the screen.

Step 2: click the browser's "reload" button to refresh the page.
You'll see that "toolbar1" disappears

Also, let us know what specific version of DynAPI you are
using.  I did not see the problem with dynapi-3.0.0-beta2. 
So provide a complete example of the failure, and the DynAPI
version you're using.

I haven't been able to reproduce this error. My test case is
http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/releases/dynapi3x/test/006.Redraw.html

Can you supply the complete code for your example that fails?
