You're not going to get good enough performance from handling thousands of elements. I tried that myself last year:
http://ff6600.org/desenhador/ff66.htm It used to run ok in FF2, but somethign in FF3 makes it really slow. If you draw with the middle-mouse button performance is better (I didn't cancel the context menu), guess it's still selecting stuff when you use left click. A better approach is using the canvas element, or maybe SVG/VML. A lot has been done in this area: http://canvaspaint.org/ http://raphaeljs.com/ 'Raphael and Isabela' sounds like a nice couple :D - ricardo On Dec 2, 11:02 am, "Dirceu Barquette" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thank you!! > please! see the example at isabeladraw.sourceforge.net.
