Hi Robin,
The div creation process in DHTML is somewhat complicated - and
depends on what browser it's running in.
There are at least two divs created for every view - one in the
clickdiv tree, and one in the visual div tree. The zIndex is set
for each div because some browsers (IE) don't respect implicit z-
ordering. If a view is made clickable, a div is added to the click
tree to handle mouse events. If a view needs a visual resource, a
div is created for multiframe resources, unless stretches is on in
which case an img is used.
A good way to understand what's happening is to use Firebug to
inspect the div hierarchy. I'd also recommend reviewing the DHTML
sprite code, available at http://svn.openlaszlo.org/openlaszlo/trunk/WEB-INF/lps/lfc/kernel/dhtml/
- in particular, http://svn.openlaszlo.org/openlaszlo/trunk/WEB-INF/lps/lfc/kernel/dhtml/LzSprite.js
Of course, feel free to ask me any specific questions. If you do
notice a difference in behavior between swf and dhtml, it's likely a
bug - they're supposed to behave the same. Please isolate to test
cases and/or file bugs when you come across this!

Hi Max,
How is everything going?
Recently, Frank and I keep fixing Jade P1 bugs. Most of which
connect to runt time difference of swf & dhtml
Seems that all lz.view inheritance will be populated at least one
div. I can observe tremendous amount of nested divs with different
z-index level.
This makes me curious to know more about how dom tree has been
build from middle language translation.
If that okay for you to give me some hints or path to go to better
understand that?
Thanks,
Robin
