Hey there,
I have a large image in a browser window, and I would like a way to
overlay grid lines on top of the image, so a user can show the grid or
hide the grid lines. The grid would cover 100% of the image, and all I
would need is a set of horizontal and vertical lines over the image to
create a grid overlay
A table with thin cell borders over the top? Or maybe just use <div>
elements to form a grid?
There might be something[1] server-side which you could install that would
render an on-the-fly overlay grid as a transparent GIF/PNG image.
Is there a way I can leverage some functionality...<snip>
<big smiley for the following>
I *hate* that use of "leverage". What's wrong with "use"
"Is there a way I can use some functionality..."
or
"Is there some function to give me greater leverage..."
but I would have written the second paragraph like this:
"Is there a built-in javascript function to do this?"
See? Simple, quick, clear.
