Yes. Here's how I'm doing it, in pseudo code:
Call Back Function{
Switch{
Case ROTATION_MSG:
DoRotation();
break;
}
}
DoRotation(){
//I've already aquired handles to dom elements after page load.
They're stored in globals
increment the angle
Set the attribute to this angle
Post ROTATION_MSG to the message cue
return;
}
I get a super hangy UI. Should I be using a timer on a tiny
increment, or some other method?

Yeah, typo, sorry. Meant Asynchronous.

I now I see what you mean, and hopefully the above shows that yes, I
am.

Sure. Obviously I'd hate to have to work inside the JavaScript engine
when I could just be working in C++, but I don't understand the
hangyness.
