Yayy, Phil -- Fantastic!
I have made this substitution in the repository for now so that we can easily
test on Chrome. I will replace with a mini version as soon as I can pare it
down again in a way that works (we use less than 13k of the full 140k
prototype.js).
Regarding Chrome, just about everything seems happy except text borders, and
this has been the case all along. As I test this, it seems that all bordered
objects treat borderWidth of 0 as borderWidth 1. However borderWidth = 0.01
does the right thing, so I will probably put in a Chrome patch for this.
There is also something wrong with Chrome's treatment of gradients in SVG, as
you can see the edge of the damage rectangles if you move the mouse over them.
While Chrome does not support text in canvas yet, the text-less display appears
to be identical to Safari 3's text-less canvas, so the compatibility omens are
good.
It's good to have you with us (Phil just joined the mail list), and MANY thanks
for this tip!
