Gantt Create function in IE

Gantt
#1

Hi,

I am wondering if you could help me understand the purpose of this code in the GanttChart.prototype.create function (v.1.3 build 100805):

if (this._isIE) { document.body.attachEvent('onselectstart', function() { window.event.returnValue = false });

The effective result is, in IE, after the Gantt chart is created, users can no longer select ANY text on the page… including text within input boxes…

Can I safely remove that code from the javascript, or is there a reason for it that I’ve overlooked?

Secondary question, is there any news on the next Gantt version release, which I hope will have time scaling options?

Thanks!

Ah, sorry, you may safely remove this code, it is to prevent text selection on the chart itself. We will review this code and maybe change it.
