Hi,
Please mention which browser/platform you use.
It looks like this might be a Linux bug.
In IE5.5/Mozilla/NS4 on windows I get :
alert1 = HTML:null
alert2 = KEY:f
Layer = nullf

Why? you can access the layer whatever kind of variable it is, like this is
fine:
textLayer = new DynLayer(null, 300,300, 300,300);
alert(textLayer.getHTML)

Didn't do that for me.
If you add a single space, as HTML of the layer, from the start, your code
seems to work as you want it too:
DynAPI.textLayer = new DynLayer(null, 300,300, 300,300,null,null,null,null,"
");

HTML: would be 'A' when it should be nothing and key
> is 'A', then it sets it 'AA'. But when I comment out the setHTML() line
