create a layer

[GraphicPunk]

Is there a way to click on a link and have a new "movable layer" created on the same page

There are multiple ways to get this done.
1. you can create a layer and make it hidden and when a link is clikced make it visible as well as move it.

2. You can create a layer at run time and make it move able.

objref = document.getElementById("layerID");

to make a alyaer visible or hidden
objref.style.visibility="visible"

to make a alyer move

objref.style.left = objref.style.left - 5//horizobtal movement

objref.style.top = objref.style.left - 5//vertical movement

Hope this helps

Cheers

I im going to have a list of almost 1500 differnt choices, having the layers hiden is not an option. The plan is to have a list of links, when one is clicked a new layer is created with an image specific(named the same as) the link. The layer needs to be movable but does not have to lock down anywhere. I'm just cant figure out a function that will do this.
