[Dynapi-Dev] Question

[Benjamin L. <be...@on...>]

Hi, I am using the buttonimage in the ibs widget set.  To place the button
relative to other elements on the page, I create an inline dynlayer and then
move the object to the location of the inline dummy layer.  After lots of
experimentation, I got this to work in Internet Explorer.  However, I am
having problems with the placement in Netscape.  The following is my code:

DynAPI.onLoad=function() {
	boldButton = new IbsButtonImage()
	boldButton.setImages(DynAPI.getImage("/images/bold.gif", 20,
20),DynAPI.getImage("/images/bold_up.gif",20,20))

	lisBold = new EventListener()
	lisBold.onselect = function(e) {
		boldThis() // boldThis defined later
	}
	boldButton.addEventListener(lisBold)

	dummyBold = DynAPI.document.all["boldB"]
	dummyBold.addChild(boldButton)

	.
	.
	.
}


Html:

<span id="divRelative" style="position: relative">

<div id="boldB" style="position: absolute;left:0;top:1"></div>

</span>

I can get the buttons to appear if I add the boldButton object to
DynAPI.document but cannot add it is a child of 'dummyBold'.  Anybody know
why this would work in ie but not netscape?  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
