Rails spinoffs - May 2006 - Effects in IE

I mentioned this before, but it would seem that in IE no matter what I do, if
elementNode.setOpacity() or elementNode.getOpacitiy() is called then IE will
throw a run time error saying that the function does not exists. This makes it
quite hard to work with any of the effects that fade elements in and out. Is
there a remedy for this?

I know if you do Element.getOpacity or Element.setOpacity it works fine, but I
don''t want to change the Effects.js file unless I absolutely have to.
Anyone else having problems with this?

-Andrew Martinez

Do you have the latest version of Prototype?  It binds functions to
elements when retrieved with the $() function.  If you are not using the
$() function, then you would have to use the Element.getOpacity()
syntax.

I haven''t had any problems with the opacity effects in IE.

I''m running Scriptaculous: 1.6.1 and Prototype: 1.5.0_rc0 (they were
packaged together)
