Hi Jack, I think you'll have to rethink your design.

When you add a layer to another layer it will be removed from it's former parent and then added to it's new parent. There is not need to call deleteFromParent() or otherwise. By looking at your code I can see where you're adding layers to dynapi.document and then inserting them into the inline layer "Big1". This is wrong. The layers according to DynAPI will have dynapi.document as there parent, but according to the browser they will be children of layer Big1. I think it's possible to not use inline layers. All you layers can be created before page load and you can use the setPosition() function to set the position to 'relative'. When the page loads you can use css.display = "inline" to set them to inline. Secondly, the DynLayer.getInline(id,p) function has two arguments. The "p" is used to identify the DynLayer to be used as the inline layer's parent. If "p" is missing then the default parent will be set to dynapi.document. You have to be careful of the parent-child relationship when working with inline layers. > One more weird problem, when I drag the "a" block, > the browser (IE6) > keeps trying to load an image file called "none", > which doesn't exist. This is due to the fact that you're using background=#EEEEEE inside your style sheets. This I believe should be background-color:#EEEEEE; I do hope this helps to clear up some of the problems you're having -- Raymond Irving > Jack > > -- > Jack Chung <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > http://www.PerceptiveCorner.com/ > > > On Mon, 7 Jul 2003 06:26:50 -0700 (PDT) > Raymond Irving <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hi Jack, > > __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
