I'm still reading through the replies to my off-list message, which I've included below. They're provoking much thought! Please let me know if it's OK to post them here, too, or feel free to bring them into the light...
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: A variation on Rado's graph editor Date: Thu, 02 Jul 2009 13:29:37 -0700 From: Pat LeSmithe <qed777> To: jason, rkirov, beezer Hi Jason, Rado, and Rob! Feeling a bit inspired, I put together a preliminary experiment with contentEditable divs and Rado's graph editor: http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~rkirov2/processing/grapheditor_live.html I've attached an archive of a few files. The main file is contedit.html, which pulls graphed.html, which pulls processing.editor.min.js. Google provides jQuery/UI. I tried using processingjs.org's processing.min.js, but it seemed the strain on my computer was even greater. However, I don't know much about *any* flavor of Processing. It's also quite possible that I broke something during the mischief. One oddity: The canvas's location on the page seems to affect the accuracy of clicks, at least in Firefox 3.5. Other issues: Re-opening multiple editors can trigger a reload, or perhaps just the randomizing routine. The styles may clash. I'm sure there are many more... Of course, this is only an example. There's also much to do, e.g., making the whole framework generic, working with selections, ensuring editor instances don't clash, integrating with the notebook, maybe converting the editor to pure JavaScript, etc. I found this contentEditable demo somewhat informative: http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/execCommand/ Take care!
