Re: A new/old handwriting interface

The following page has a kind of handwriting interface mockup:

This uses Javascript for its interface. The recognition engine is taken
from the same thing which WWWJDIC used to use, via something called
Kanjipad.

Very nice. Most impressive. With a few more lines it could be the
WWWJDIC handwriting interface returned. Or any other interface you like.
I see you modified Taku Kudo's Ajax interface. I must try some Ajax
one day.

BTW:
(1) it failed to recognize several kanji for me: 酒 and 西, for example.
(2) it kept popping up "no connection" windows. Maybe a timeout needs
lengthening.
(3) it didn't work at all with IE6, but then we know MS doesn't really do
Javascript.
