Rails spinoffs - Dec 2007 - new 1.6 Element constructor might not work with the Mozilla Suite (not Firefox)

I''m rapidly coming to the conclusion that the new Element constructor
in Prototype 1.6 doesn''t work with the Mozilla suite (the thing before
Firefox).  I''m still working on making sure.  Does Prototype still 
support the Mozilla suite?  Has anyone else noticed something like this?

AFAIK, the mozilla suite is not officially supported.

Just found in the README:

Prototype currently targets the following platforms:

* Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows, version 6.0 and higher
* Mozilla Firefox 1.0/Mozilla 1.7 and higher
* Apple Safari 1.2 and higher


So if I''m right that it''s broken for Mozilla, then
it''s a bug.

Hi,

I suppose we should update the README to reflect more closely our
currently supported browsers.

Mozilla is a relatively old browser now and afaik we''re the only
library still claiming support for it.

Basically, what that means is that we''ll gladly include a patch that
solves this issue, but won''t be actively researching a solution for it
as our resources are better spent elsewhere imho.

If this issue is important to you, I suggest you start by running the
tests in the Mozilla browser and see if any fails.

There''s a good run down on how to do that here:

Best,

Tobie
