Rails spinoffs - Nov 2006 - $(form).getElements() undefined ?

Hi all !

I just updated to Rails Edge, and found a strange error.  I have an
anchor element which does a simple submit and update.  The anchor's
onclick code is this:

new
Ajax.Request('http://wpul.staging.teksol.info:5789/admin/parties/phone/new',
{asynchronous:true, evalScripts:true,
parameters:Form.serialize('phones_head')}); return false;

The error occurs on the call to Form.serialize('phones_head').  The
specific error I get is: "$(form).getElements is not a function" on
line 1755 of prototype.js.

line 1753 and on:

Form.Methods = {
  serialize: function(form) {
    return Form.serializeElements($(form).getElements());
  },
}

If I replace the return statement with this one:
    return Form.Methods.getElements(form);

Then I can get my form working again.  This is on Firefox 2.0, Windows
XP SP2, Rails 1.2 RC1 (r5639).

Am I doing something wrong ?

If you updated an existing project, you''re likely still using old
JavaScript files (older versions of Prototype did not automatically
extend <form> elements with Form.Methods).  Try this:
	rake rails:update
Or more chirurgically (but this maybe will leave a few issues lurking):
	rake rails:update:javascripts
