Hello All
Thanks a lot for your replies. Really helpful.
I implemented the iFrame method and it works perfectly (at least in FF 3
and Safari 3 on Mac).
Setting the width and height alone didn't render the iframe as invisible
though. I had to add a different decorator as well.
---- snip ----
this._dlFrame = new qx.ui.embed.Iframe("");
this._add(this._dlFrame);
this._dlFrame.set({
width: 0,
height: 0,
decorator : new qx.ui.decoration.Background("transparent")
});
---- snip ----
