In your event listener you can disable bubbling for that layer/div for the current event - to stop the event going to the parent. It's one line of code if you want to stop a parent event handler triggering for the same event type i.e. onkeydown, onmousedown (and only if the DynAPI developer who wrote the low level event functions allows you to do this). So anything mouse/drag may not behave as I've mentioned - so sorry for any bad information. I have found it difficult to understand the DynAPI event system as it provides it's own interpretation of addEventListener, stopPropagation, preventBubble and e.t.c. I suspect that DynAPI will be a good server side CGI widget creation system (not DHTML) with custom code/events. DHTML=>SHTML=>SHTAPI=>DYNAPI -- ok, I'm joking about SHTAPI ;-) So I don't get it either. I just load more paper in the printer and try to understand. As the documentation says the code does have a small footprint! All the people on this mailing list are very good and can help so thanks for your kind comment.
