Hey all. I haven't done anything with dynapi2. I messed around a little bit with the original version probably over a year ago. Anyways, I always thought it was a pretty cool api so I thought maybe I'd try it to solve the problem I now have at hand. Here's what I'm trying to do. I am creating a list of links with a perl script. Each link has 3 radio buttons associated with it, that will be on the left side of the link. Each radio button has a unique color, ie(red, green, orange). When the user clicks one of the radio buttons I want the background of the link to change to that color. I've been messing around with dynapi now for less than an hour, reading docs and modifying examples that come with the distro. But the problem I'm having is I need to create these dynlayers on the fly, because I don't know how big my list of links will be, my perl script figures all that out. So when you create a new dynlayer on the fly can you pass the name to the function that creates the new layer, then eval() the name to set it's properties? Or is there another, better method of handling it? Also I don't want to have to set the position of the layer. I would like the layer to appear where it would on the page if it were just another html element. In other words, is there a way to let the position be rendered, or figured out by the html like normal? I remember with the original version you could just put a div where you wanted it and then work on it's properties with the api. But the new version seems to be completely self contained, as far as I can see. Does this mean I can't add my own div on the page and then work on it with dynapi? Or may I can but it isn't a good idea to do it that way? Here's a screenshot to help you understand what I'm trying to do, http://localcityscene.com/misc/dyn_link_screenShot.gif ..
