Rails spinoffs - Nov 2006 - passing multiple elements to Element methods (hide, show, etc)

Hey

I recently upgraded to the new scriptaculous (1.65 if I remember
correctly), which requires the new rc of prototype (1.51rc1). Problem
is, this has caused a number of my scripts to break.

In the old prototype 1.4, one could pass multiple elements to the
Element methods (ala: Element.hide(''el1'',
''el2'', ''el3''); ).. but that
functionality seems to have been given the miss in the new versions of
prototype.

I''m hoping that this will be re-implemented in some way, but in the
mean time I''m wondering if I''m just missing something here --
or if I
should give up hope and rewrite all these calls as
[arraylist].each(Element.hide)  ?

Thanks!

Ryan

I don''t think it will be re-implanted but if your scripts depends on
it you could just overwrite the function in your own script but still
be able to use the latest prototype library.

Like:
Element._old_hide = Element.hide, Element._old_show = Element.show;
Element.hide = function() { $A(arguments).each(Element._old_hide); }
Element.show = function() { $A(arguments).each(Element._old_show); }
