LayerEmu    

resources:	Home Mailing List Installation Source Code Screenshots

Using LayerEmu with existing scripts:

1. Get the XBL document, CSS document, and the Javascript file.
2. Place them all in same directory on your own host (please no leeching, MozDev is having its own problems currently).
3. Add the following code to your page:
   <script type="text/javascript" language="Javascript1.5" src="pathTo/LayerEmu.js"></script>
   <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="LayerEmu bindings" href="pathTo/LayerEmu.css"/>
4. That's it! Your done - hopefully your previously NS4-only code will become NS4+ code :-)

Using LayerEmu with new scripts:

• Simply put - DON'T! Writing your code to W3C DOM standards is the way forward, and LayerEmu will not offer any support to implementing this for new scripts.
• Remember that the point of LayerEmu is to make scripts that weren't going to be updated work in Gecko, and not to allow old-fashioned, proprietary coding practices to continue.
• Friends don't let other friends ignore web standards.
