Hi Nathan, Yes, that may seem like counterintuitive UI design, but it was for a purpose and actually works quite well. Here's a test link for ya: http://www.kfancy.com/moo/app_tools.html
I was making a tool to allow in-browser crop/zoom of an image (sort of). Basically I found it easier to create a floating invisible div and track the drag coords on that instead of enabling the image to be cropped itself for dragging... something to do with overflow and other probs. Anyway, have a look if you like, and you'll get the idea. On Sep 16, 1:13 pm, "Nathan White" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Its an implementation issue with those browsers.
