This is my StaticTextBox replacement mybox.py

I do have a better implementation and I do plan on posting the update soon!

While not really a StaticBox type Control, it...

1. Does the job.
2. Gets the point across... a labeled box.
3. Most importantly allows tooltips to work inside of it.

I hope that it is useful to someone.

This shows a really nasty bug in wxWidgets... the dredded content problem on http connections.

fixhttp.py

It has been posted on trac at http://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/13096.

We'll see if upstream actually fixes the problem.

...

More nastiness, Try this one...

>>> import wx

>>> import wx.animate

>>> app = wx.PySimpleApp()

>>> a = wx.animate.Animation('animated.gif')

>>> a.IsOk()

True

So far, so good, Right??

>>> a.GetFrameCount()

0

>>>

Uhhh... wtf? I've tried MANY animated GIF files, and ALL report zero frames! _HOWEVER_ the SAME ones work fine in wx.animate.GIFAnimationCtrl

_WTF!_

Update: on this issue... aparently it's a deficency in GTK. The fix is to do this on your own. Will post 100% python 'fix' for this issue when the time is right.
