TagCanvas constructor fails on backbone based application. #5

Closed ConnectedReasoning closed 9 years ago

ConnectedReasoning commented 9 years ago

function TagCanvas(cid,lctr,opt) { var i, p, c = doc.getElementById(cid), cp = ['id','class','innerHTML'], raf;

if the doc does not yet have the element, as is the case when attempting to render a view in backbone, then the tagCanvas fails because there is not element in the doc

If the canvas doesn't exist, TagCanvas can't draw on it. Try starting TagCanvas after the element has been added to the DOM.

That was it thank you. I moved beyond that error by starting it after calling the backbone render method. I still havent got it to work so but the specific error that motivated me to write this issue is resolved. I'll be more specific if I open more, thanks
