Thanks! I can get the outline to show correctly now.
My only problem is the var myNewClass = new Class(classDefinition);
bit.
I usually do:
var myNewClass = new classDefinition({option1: 'value1',option2:
'value2'});
Do you know of a way to do the options, with the "new
Class(classDefinition)" way?
