Is there a small graphics library that I can use? All I need to do is
draw a line of a nominated thickness and colour between two specified
points and to, at some later time, "delete" the line?
I've found a few offerings but either they weren't multi-browser
compatible or they were too big for me to consider (20K instead of 2 or 3K).

...excuse me? 20Kb is too much? Exactly who do you need to
feed this to? People in subs, using a hydrophone as a modem?
That sounds like an astoundingly tight size limit for this day
and age. It would not have been considered a tight limit, as
the main functionality of a page, even at the 28Kb modem stage.

Yes you are right, it is a tight size limit. Do you know of a library I
could use?

HTML is not a vector language, lines aren't lines, but nothing more
than lots of blocks, it's easy to do yourself, no library needed, any
general purpose library will be large.

draws a line between two clicked points. It could easily be modified to
draw a line between any two points. But the larger the "box" is, the
larger the page gets. Most of the code in that page (Its 29kb) is CSS
code, not JS code though.
It "works", as written, in Opera and IE. Wouldn't be hard to make it
work in Mozilla with a few corrections. And the entire thing could
probably be made more efficient.
The creation date on the server was April 30, 2003 for the index.html
file but the creation date for the images was in 2002, so I probably
made some minor changes in 2003. Simply click on two places in the blue
box and it will "draw" a red line between them.

The problem with xbm images is its lack of support in non-IE browsers.

You might take a look at the - wz_jsgraphics.j s - library at:-
<URL: http://www.walterzorn.com >
(I forget the URL of the exact page)
- it is 15Kb, but you only need the line drawing methods and they are
good implementations of the Bresenham line drawing algorithm (might be
worth a google search as any reference to that algorithm may also
mention faster alternatives), which is very fast. If you can understand
the code it should be possible to reverse-engineer and strip the
specifics down to less than 5Kb.

I'm making a 'whiteboard' application.
I'm trying to have 2+ connected users able to draw at the same time.
However, if User1 draws a line, when User2 is drawing, on User1 screen,
it will draw another line, connecting User1's, and User2's current X,Y
position.
Same thing happens with User2.
But User3, and User4 is not drawing, and see the lines drawn individually.

I am looking for a solution to add on-line drawing tool
to a phpBB discussion board.
The idea would be that the users can draw their own

as images in the discussion. The idea is to easily

The drawign tool should be easy to use and learn.
It should be easily integrate to the phpBB system.

Hi
I am looking to draw a dotted line between two controls at design time and
render this at run time in a similar fashion.
The most basic application of this would be a panel with two buttons on it.
I would then draw a dotted line between the two. This line would then have
to move when either of the two buttons move to update the connection between
the two.

I want to know if the mouse is over (hitting) a line. Therefore I created a
Region object that holds the line and use the IsVisible() method to test if
the mouse hits the line. It doesn't work! In the little program below I
create two Regions: one is square, the other is a line. Hit testing works on
the square-Region, not on the line-Region.
How can I do a hit-test over a line?
