did you confirm that the browser is loading the prototype.js file?

i believe i have.

i am trying to confirm that now.  i moved a function that was being
called from master.js into the prototype js.

i also discovered that when opening the prototype.js with notepad it
didn''t show (looked garbled)  as it does in RAD or textpad.

i did a cut and paste so that it shows nicely in notepad now.

now im re-deploying

it''s going to sound preachy but i don''t mean it to be but
there''s an
extension for firefox called JS View.  It adds a context menu that will let
you choose one or all of the external JS files to view in code view.

It''s really helpful for stuff like that.  Two clicks and
you''ll know if yer
included files are right. if you see the html for a 404 error then the
browser doesn''t see the JS file.  if it does find the file
it''ll display it
as it reads it.

I am aware of that JS VIew and the Java Script console.  unfortunately
for me.

The client does not allow firefox or netscape.

Is there any such plug for IE ?

well the clients don''t need it to use the page but they can''t
stop you from
using it on your own computer to diagnose the problems.

another way to see what the browser is seeing as far as the prototype file
goes is to have them put in the direct url to the js file and it''ll
load
like text.

but if you are sure the pt js file is loading then try a different function
and see if that works.

something as easy as  <div id="test"></div> <script
type="text/javascript">$(''test'').update("testing
prototype.js")</script>

should do the trick, off the top of my head though.
