I wrote it up at the OpenLaszlo project web log.<BR/><BR/>The work we've done to separate out a simple kernel for DHTML involved creating an API to a simple "LzSprite" class which implements basic rendering and mouse event handling. At that point the code to render in DHTML for the underlying LzSprite object looked very similar to SVG (DOM model, javascript events ,etc) so it was pretty easy to mush it into using SVG instead of browser DIV objects. <BR/><BR/>Hopefully if SVG support gets a little bit better, this will be a viable runtime for Firefox and Opera certainly, not sure about Internet Explorer. Microsoft will probably drag their feet for a long while before putting in native SVG support. But there's always hope..Henryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16208839315660807152noreply@blogger.com
