[Dynapi-Dev] Getting into it [ prologue ]

[Jordi 'I. M. <jmi...@or...>]

Ok, I've eaten and procesed all the new code in the API. I'm starting this new
thread where I will reply myself and share my progress ( if any ). Good news is
that my SMI (see my website for details) is finally finished, but I want to make
sure it works with this precreation code ( which will hopefully decrease the
time needed to initialize a big menulist ), before I release it.

Ok. Facts

A) The precreation code looks nice.
B) The current cvs release doesn't have a buttonimage example. Instead, there's
a button widget and the corresponding example. It doesn't work but that is
because:
C) The label widget doesn't work properly in IE, wich brings us to point:
D) The label widget no longer uses a cover layer and cancelBrowserEvent() does
not prevent text from being selectable.
E) I'm not event using IE5.5 but 4.0 and 5.0
F) Events in child layers in IE5 seem to get lost in the way and never reach the
API. I still don't know under which circunstances a IE child layer decides that
I am an evil person and therefore my code must not be executed and if possible a
lightning should fry me dead.
G) I've been testing and reloading and reloading and NS didn't crash one single
time. That is good news.
