I used OutputDebugString and DbgView to view the messages and never had a problem compared with random crashes in Ruby world due stack overwriting.
you can also create a singleton wrapper if you want to log from Ruby world without going to the slow ruby console.
anyone tried Google Chrome Frame ? there is a non-admin install released lately - http://blog.chromium.org/2011/06/introducing-non-admin-chrome-frame.html
Dynamic Color Reference works perfectly as it uses plain javascript.
Examples that use TDC will not work as .ocx is windows only.
thanks Charly, but I found only in Rome and not near sea. will keep looking.
Chris yeah, my wife is dragging me out of the computer 
can anybody help us (2 adults + 1 children) in finding accommodation near Rome for 1-10.sep ? due last minute decision we didn't find any decent place to follow our requirements (booked out or too expensive):

nice work Adam, you should have had started with the shadow slider first - looks great !
ishboo: pull request sent. also added my 1.8.7 bundle in /build
thomthom compiling is like a black box where you throw a bunch of files and expect another bunch of files. you need to know the parameters used (mostly how to include headers and libs and output formats) from the help files. also wikipedia entry on compilers is a good start for an overview.
also use a file monitor [procmon(Win) and opensnoop(OSX)] when things go wrong - it saved me a lot of time when files were not found (looking in wrong directories) or wrong files were used.
here is what I did to make it work:
remove the x64 version from makefile - you can check with otool -hv file_downloader.bundle -> cputype I386
link to the correct libruby.1.dylib (1.8.7 in my case as I upgraded Sketchup Ruby framework) - check with otool -L file_downloader.bundle -> current version 1.8.7
removed the x64 version and now it crashes with EXC_BAD_ACCESS in Init_file_downloader. will keep you updated on debug progress.
I tested your code in my safari 5.0.5 and firefox 4.01 and it fails because it sets an attribute instead of using the property to set the value of the node.
table:
<table><tr><td id="mycell">Data</td></tr></table>
code:
cell = document.getElementById("mycell")
cell.setAttribute("innerHTML","XXX")
> <td id="1" innerhtml="XXX">Data</td>
cell.innerHTML = "YYY"
> changes the cell content
because you set an attribute instead of using a property(method) ->
<div id="project_configuration_label" innerhtml="Project Configuration">
js=('document.getElementById("project_configuration_label").innerHTML = ' + db("Project Configuration"))
@dlg.execute_script(js)
Heven7_floor: define doesn't work. what do you expect and what is the outcome ?
@unknownuser said:
Right - so if I make a wrapper that will refresh after a given max interval - otherwise invalidate - that would be an ok method?
by using that you dont address the problem because you dont take in account system draw. but it can be used as workaround.
WM_PAINT is Windows specific, I didn't delved deeper in OSX internals yet. the main idea is - do not update the whole window if you just modified a small part of it - how we will implement that without Sketchup help, we will see
