Hi there,
It's great news to have the new dynapi3 in cvs.
I've checked it out and tried a few examples. I tried the inline and got a lot of errors. I fixed all of them in dynlayer_inline.js. I don't have write access to cvs I think, so shall I get one ? Otherwise, what's the procedure to follow ?
Hi
I've been playing with a widget that can be initialized from an inline

Hi
I've been doing anchoring in dynapi2 for a while, and I chose to use an
anchor tag around an image of the size of the layer I want to place for
NS 4.7x, and a DIV position:relative of the size of the layer I want to
place for IE, NS 6/7 and Safari. The reason I made that choice was that

I fixed this issue by calling this.applyDomImageEventWorkaround(). It will basically respect any custom event handler on the image if any exists.
It needs to be called after each setHTML, and when you map a dynlayer to an inline div with something like getInline .
I was tired of doing this by hand
dynlayer_ie.js and dynlayer_opera.js files had a
fix to this problem, but I think your solution will
work just fine for all browsers. I would however call
the function ._applyImageEventDragHandler()
