Re: [Dynapi-Dev] RE: Still having image animation problems (event catching)

[Rob R. <ro...@ma...>]

I build buttons in similar way the way I trap the events is to put up a mask
layer inside the widget that is basically transparent but sits on top of all
the other layers. I then use this to trap mouse events and handle them at the
level of the widget. If you want to have the cursor change by using css then
the only way I've worked out to do that is to put a transparent 1 pixel image
in the mask layer and scale it to size, then use a <span> tag around it for
the cursor handling. It may not be orthodox but it works.

HTH,

Rob
