SVG and Canvas would do that, too, and probably in less code than required by the current <div> hackery. > Can events be added to a <canvas> > that fire when a click occurs on a specific element? Building interactive graphics with raw canvas elements is a fair bit of work, but doable. Basically you have to work out what was clicked given a raw coordinate value, which means you have to remember where on the canvas you drew each box. Or, you can just use a scene graph library like EaselJS, which provides things like the Shape class, which can receive click events: https://github.com/CreateJS/EaselJS EaselJS’s API is based on the ActionScript API for Flash, and it’s quite powerful. Current versions of Adobe Flash Professional use EaselJS when exporting Flash to HTML5. Scene graph libraries provide other benefits, such as a hierarchical display list instead of a raw array-of-pixels, so that you can let the library worry about things like drawing order. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
