I have updated my development version to 1.2.3 (where my production is still on 1.1.6) and the Macintosh OS 9 clients using Netscape 7.02 can no longer use auto_complete_for where it works fine on 1.1.6 which suggests to me that changes in something like prototype have broken my very broken Netscape 7.02 clients. Since there is no further updates to the Netscape client past 7.02, is there something I can do to get some greater amount of compatibility for the javascript code in 1.2.3 for these clients? -- Craig White <craig-CnJ8jr4MGtxl57MIdRCFDg@public.gmane.org> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I would suggest downgrading the javascripts. The Rails stuff is just a thin wrapper on it anyway. Although, give the scriptaculous autocomplete demo a try in Netscape 7 just to be sure it really is what''s broken.

Not sure exactly how to downgrade javascripts. I copied prototype.js from my 1.1.6 to my 1.2.3 but then auto_complete_for doesn''t seem to work for any client on 1.2.3 I can see rake rails:update:javascripts but I can''t see how to go backwards that way Craig On Wed, 2007-05-23 at 19:23 +0000, dasil003 wrote:> I would suggest downgrading the javascripts.

I will have to try that because this issue caught me totally by surprise. One of the selling points I used was that Rails worked fine with Netscape 7.02 on their old Mac''s - which it did until the javascript bundled with 1.2.3 I''m not complaining, we are talking about really old client applicatons - just flabbergasted and I''ve done too much refactoring for the upgrade to 1.2.x to go back to 1.1.6 now Thanks Craig On Thu, 2007-05-24 at 17:31 +0000, gustin wrote:> You could try the Unobtrusive Javascript plugin: > http://www.ujs4rails.com/ > > ~)o > gustin > > http://www.entryway.net > > > On May 23, 3:54 pm, Craig White <c...-CnJ8jr4MGtxl57MIdRCFDg@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > Not sure exactly how to downgrade javascripts. > > > > I copied prototype.js from my 1.1.6 to my 1.2.3 but then > > auto_complete_for doesn''t seem to work for any client on 1.2.3 > > > > I can see rake rails:update:javascripts but I can''t see how to go > > backwards that way > > > > Craig > > > > > > > > > > > > On Wed, 2007-05-23 at 19:23 +0000, dasil003 wrote: > > > I would suggest downgrading the javascripts.
