in reply to Layers within tables

Check out DynAPI. It's a bunch of JavaScript code that you cut & paste or include into your pages that will handle layers & other DHTML widgets in Netscape and IE. And it's GPL! I might give it a go on my site, too. Hope this helps.

    Hi,

    Want to add a problem to that DynAPI.

    It's not platform-independent!!

    Ugly/not working on Mac/linux.
    Well some things work a believe but not all and I feel(also in programming perl) that it should try to be platform-independent.
    Don't know how you all feel. Maybe some reactions??

    UPDATE:
    ILAYER is a tag that is not used anymore. The best to use is to use div and css. And be on the watch it works on all platforms.
    Working with layers is something that should be avoided becauce they're the main raison why websites don't look the same or are viewable by all platforms!!
