My only problem with it is that I had to use the keyboard to get to the Attach button, since I couldn't click on it with it being behind the pie chart in the page's Z-order. Yes, no way around (I think). Even with the buttons z-index set to 99 it still shows up behind the beachball. TAB and the spacebar are your friends I guess... :-) You could make the z-index of the beachball at 1, and then put the rest of the page in a div with a z-index higher than 1. The beachball should then still appear, but be under the div, which allows you to click the button. I ran into the same issue with a game I've been making: http://www.primateapplications.com/trackattack/ Since you're working with the Canvas, you can be reasonably sure that the browser would support doing this. -- Ray Hauge www.primateapplications.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I was trying to place track pieces before clicking Start. I thought it was there to be clicked when you were ready to have the train go on the track you built. So yes, it works on all three of the systems and configurations I tried. There was just a mild case of Operator Error. My logic processor is still rather buggy sometimes. Good job! -- /Daniel P.

For example, when we, on a Mac, are copying a file, our cursor turns to a pointer with a plus. That cursor is not available via browsers. So, your canvas example could provide cursor attributes. Just a thought -- I have to do some other thinking now.

Re: [PHP] Another canvas example
it's a beach ball cursor. Lol. A didn't see it like that, but now you've mentioned it, it's kinda stuck and that's all I can see now. :-) -- Richard Heyes Employ me: http://www.phpguru.org/cv ++ | Access SSH with a Windows mapped drive | |http://www.phpguru.org/sftpdrive| ++ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
