Pretty sweet! My only problem with it is that I had to use the keyboard
to get to the Attach button, since I couldn't click on it with it
being behind the pie chart in the page's Z-order.


Yes, no way around (I think). Even with the buttons z-index set to 99 
it still shows up behind the beachball.


TAB and the spacebar are your friends I guess... :-)



You could make the z-index of the beachball at 1, and then put the rest 
of the page in a div with a z-index higher than 1.  The beachball should 
then still appear, but be under the div, which allows you to click the 
button.  I ran into the same issue with a game I've been making:

Since you're working with the Canvas, you can be reasonably sure that 
the browser would support doing this.


Dude, that's cool it's killed my productivity, but it's cool :D

The Playmobil website has a very similar one, except it's water-pipes
and Flash.

My son likes trains, and I was using this as an excuse to learn 
JavaScript better.  My wife's favorite NES game (yes, I collect NES 
games) was/is Pipe Dream, so I modeled it after that game.  It uses 
Soundmanager2 to play the music and sounds through Flash.  All the code 
is inline, just to make it easier for people to view the code.

You are not alone, my friend! I spend a few hours every so often playing my 
brains out on Dr. Mario, Ducktales, and Dragon Warrior (and no, the 
alliteration is not on purpose). :)
