Hi, I wanted to do a desktop version of http://domikun.tumblr.com just 'cause it sounded cool, you know how these things go :)
Anyway, a first app using hpricot became an excuse to play with the new download command (without it domikun.rb hanged while doing image "path of a big image online") Here there is the result http://gist.github.com/14750 I've used download more extensively so I've been able to save all the initial image files remotely and therefore giving you only the .rb file to download. Now the questions: the app doesn't work as intended: the food.png image is saved correctly every 20secs, but is not refreshed.. How do I force the refresh? I tried the hide and show hack, but without luck.. and there is a way to choose the z-index of images? It is implicitly set by the order in which images are loaded, but I had to use the :finish block for the background download to set the correct order (and z-index) for the "food". Incidentally I like this solution better, 'cause the load of the app is IMHO cleaner. any ideas? E ps. great threads lately on the list, but you guy write too much :) I have an amount of backlog to read now. (whoops, I hope now you'll answer me anyway though :) )
