Why do effects that display an element (like Appear or Slide Down) start by displaying the element for a split second and then make the element disappear? _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-spinoffs

I need to generate some browser-specific code; can I identify which browser is being used from within my RoR code? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...entOS7 (No, I did not install Flash, VLC and all the other stuff. I only want HTML5 MP4 playback..) I enabled the nux repos. I did install all available gstreamer plugins, i.e. -good -bad -ugly -ffmpeg etc. No success. Has anybody got mp4 playback working? Here's a test page: https://www.quirksmode.org/html5/tests/video.html Help would be appreciated! Best regards, Roman

Is there a standard way of programmatically firing an event on an element? I think this code works in IE but not FF: myElement.fireEvent(''onclick''); I really only care about IE and FF, but anything else is a bonus. I didn''t see anything in prototype/scriptaculous for this, but I might have missed it. Thanks. Joe Athman

Hi, I was just reading an article that talked about the problems with Microsoft''s event registration and handling. >From http://www.quirksmode.org/js/events_advanced.html 1. Events always bubble, no capturing possibility. 2. The event handling function is referenced, not copied, so the this keyword always refers to the window and is completely useless. I was wondering if the Prototype library completely works around these problems...

...rton</ li>), but I''m not entirely happy with this solution. Suggestions? For bonus points: I like to use innerHTML to insert new content into the DOM. Yes, it''s non-standard, but it''s widely supported, and it''s much faster than the DOM methods - see http://quirksmode.org/dom/innerhtml.html. If you can suggest a clean technique that allows me to keep using innerHTML *and* attach onclick handlers in the way I''ve described, I''ll write a song extolling your greatness. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message...

Don''t get me wrong, JavaScript/Ajax helpers in Rails are a huge timesaver and they have helped me to finally overcome my irrational aversion to js libraries like prototype and such. However, all this goodness seems to come at quiet a price. The resulting code is littered with inline JS, including ubiquitous script tags and onload attributes etc.. It seems that just when i found

I know I saw something a while back about a simple Rich Text Editor; did that go anywhere? I''d love to see something as simple as the one google uses in gmail. If not, I''ll get started on it :-D. -Jerod _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org

Hi all, we are writing a cross browser Javascript control that enhances the HTML text input element in order to accept only digits (more or less). Supposing that ''domText'' is the DOM element corresponding to the HTML text input, we wrote the following: Event.observe(domText, "keypress", this.onKeyPress.bindAsEventListener(this)); where this.onKeyPress =

After reading http://www.hixie.ch/advocacy/xhtml and having some headaches with IE, I wonder whether helpers can be configured to generate HTML instead of XHTML. -- fxn

Hello. I spent an hour or three chasing down a desired effect that mootools implements, namely the simulation of onmouseleave and onmouseenter events. Why? Lets say you have a Menu. A ul element that contains many li elements. If you want to have a function (maybe an effect) fire when the mouse moves outside of the ul, you are out of luck. Observe the mouseout function like so:

Ok! So I have this survey project I''m working on where there are a list of questions but only one shows up at a time. That part''s easy. And, it is fully functional as we speak (and I think even ''live'') however..... My boss wants to be able to have the survey go to the next question when a user selects an answer. This part is easy.. except..... IE

In my layout I have a navigation bar with a few elements in it. The elements can be toggled on or off and thereby reveal or conceal some subtopics. I store the state of the toggle for the navigation elements in the session. When the page is reloaded, the navigation items are collapsed because the css for display: none is set by default in the html for the navigation elements. Is there a

Hi I have a weird bug with getHeight or getDimensions().hegiht (prototype) only on safari if I have a html file like this <div id="test"></div> and a embedded css <style> #test { width:100px; height:100px; float:left; } </style> In Safari $(''test'').getHeight returns 100, fine but if the css declaration #test.. is in a css file

Hi ! Sorry if my 2 questions are stupid: - Is there a way with prototype or scriptaculous libraries to get the selected text in an html page ? Or in a textarea ? - Do you know a good SDA or RSA javascript library other that this one: http://pajhome.org.uk/crypt/sda/index.html ?

Hi, Does anybody have a little cross-browser piece of code to resize a popup ? Excatly, I don''t know if it is possible ?, I would like to open a popup on the side of an existing window like if it would be a tabpane. So reducing window width by the width of the popup, set the popup on the side of the window. And the best of the best: when the window is resize, resizing the popup also
