Thanks Michael,

I thought that much...

I thought I might try to contribute to DynAPI by documenting the API and
providing usefull short examples for every call I think needs to be
detailed.

This would be to supplement what is already out there and fill in the blanks
based on the learning curve I have been going through.

Subject: Re: [Dynapi-Help] Empty Function (was: scrolling ticker taper)


These methods are used throughout the widgets as new code is needed to be
placed in certain spots of the objects initialisation.  In the beginning,
these
are blank to allow for each type of object to inherit a blank method to
begin
with.

For example, code that needs to be added to the specificCreate method of a
DynDocument, is not the same as the code needed for the DynLayer.  However,
the
DynObject still needs this defined because it is executed by the Object's
initialisation code.

I know this sounds confusing, but I think you are on the right track to
making
more sense than me : )
