Guys,
I posted this in the Rails group, but then I found this one which is
more appropriate. I am having problems getting some of my javascript
to run in Safari 2.04 on OS X. It works fine in Firefox 2.0 on the
mac, but in Safari it doesn''t run at all, as Safari is complaining
about the syntax.
I stripped the code right down to the following:
function makeRequest() {
url = ''/ajaxtest/index'';
new Ajax.Request(url, {
method: ''get'',
onSuccess: function success(t) { // -----> Safari gives a syntax
error on this line (Syntax error - parse error)
alert(''success'');
},
onFailure: function failure(t) {
alert(''failed ajax'');
}
} );
}
As far as I can tell this example is identical to the example in the
prototype.js api docs - I just cannot figure out what is wrong! Any
ideas would help a lot!
Thanks,
Stephen.

Try this ... function makeRequest() { url = ''/ajaxtest/index''; new Ajax.Request(url, { method: ''get'', onSuccess: function(t) { alert(''success''); }, onFailure: function failure(t) { alert(''failed ajax''); } } ); } You''ll see the example at http://prototypejs.org/api/ajax/request does NOT have a name for the function. -- ----- Richard Quadling Zend Certified Engineer : http://zend.com/zce.php?c=ZEND002498&r=213474731 "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

Ah of course! I won''t have access to OS X until this evening (my day job forces windows upon me ... ) but I will test it out then and let you know. Thanks, Stephen.
