I found you can assign a class to a dynlayer like this:
<style type="text/css">
.orangeline {
color: #996699;
text-decoration:underline;
background-color: #eeeeee;
border-style: outset;
}
</style>
and then
DynAPI.onLoad = function() {
myLayer = new DynLayer(null,150,140,300,60)
myLayer.setHTML('hello')
DynAPI.document.addChild(myLayer)
myLayer.elm.className='orangeline'
}
You can only assign the class after the layer has been created.
You can change the class dynamically.
It doesn't work in NS4. Why? I don't know.
I hope we could get NS4 to at least show the bits that it supports.
Cheers,
