[Proto-Scripty] Re: does prototype abstract canvas usage to both IE mozilla?

2009-03-02 Thread greghauptmann

Hi guys,

I've just come across http://jalava.buildyourownapps.com

I'm just seeing now that for a diagram editor there seems to be 2
approaches from what I can tell, one based on real drawing (e.g.
raphaeljs, or canvas tag), and the other using the capabilities of
layout inherit using HTML/CSS/etc which is what the above-mentioned
jalava is doing I think (or I think the commercial http://mxgraph.com
is using this also)

Any comments here?  Would you agree that using the HTML/CSS layout
capabilities (which seems to lay in being able to do absolute
positioning of objects) would be a better fit?  This would also get
around any issues re Canvas tag support cross-browsers?




Thanks

 Canvas element is supported by quite a lot of modern browsers. You
 don't need to normalize anything. To simulate it in IE, you would use
 `excanvas.js` by Google. It works quite well.

Hi greghauptmaann,

prototype doesn't do that at all, to do what you want to do, just go
to the raphael javascript library at http://raphaeljs.com/
I'm sure you will find what your looking for :))

Hi greghauptmaann,

sorry, I saw this library some time ago, and to see what evolve in it,
i just saw that it does not handle canvas, but SVG !!
that's also another possibility for you :))

So I did not know any cross browser library.
