why are you making it difficult for yourself by usind layer drawings ans so on
why not just use CSS? <div style="border-style:outset">some stuff</div> <br> <div style="border:3px outset">some stuff</div> <br> <div style="border:2px outset">some stuff</div> <br> <div style="border:1px outset">some stuff</div> Steve -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Scott Barnes Sent: Monday, April 26, 2004 12:46 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Q. DHTML onEnterFrame? I have a component made in DHTML which basically draws a 2 DIV bevel effect, kind of short cutting some graphic work. Problem I have faced is how do you invalidate with dhtml? In ActionScript we could basically add a series of method calls to a que and then on the next frame/interval it basically processes that que. The cool part about this technique is it can reduce method calls. An example of such would be say I generate a DoubleBevel Panel (ie 2 panels ontop of eachother). Now to build this I need to size each panel? so basically in my layoutChildren() method, I have two calls per Bevel (SetSize,moveTo). This is i guess ok, but sadly the setSize and moveTo each have a draw() call within their methods, resulting in the draw method for a SingleBevelPanel object being called twice? Instead It would be great to be able to add the draw method to a que, and if another request for draw is requested, it then checks the que and if it already exists, basically continues on. This results in 1 draw call vs many. Of course if you wanted to request the draw method be called twice or more you can over-ride the que. How do people out there do this style of technique with DHTML. The only way I can think of is using a SetInterval style approach? but is that a good idea? -- Regards, Scott Barnes - http://www.mossyblog.com http://www.bestrates.com.au --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004 --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
