Hi all, I encountered a big problem when trying to use Scriptaculous and Htmlarea in the same page. The Htmlarea code uses a lot of "for (var i in array_variable)" to iterate on array elements. Problem is that prototype.js augments Array.prototype, which then show up in the iteration, severely breaking htmlarea. The easy workaround is for sure to use "for (var i = 0; i <

...code. I am hoping some XHTML guru out there might be able to shed some light. If you load up the attached file in IE6, you''ll see the events only fire in the middle section of the title bar when your over the border ! - FF1.5 is fine.. Any thoughts / comments appreciated..

Perhaps I missed something but I don''t see an easy way to do this ? Basically just wanna hold some ui state in a cookie. Did I miss something obvious ?

Hey folks I am just investigating using Aspects for logging my main Javascript "interfaces". I don''t believe Prototype has any built in capabilities for this but I just thought I''d check and see how people had tackled this before. I am still getting to grips with core JS so apologies if this is easy or obvious.. I am Googling as we speak also.. Cheers Matt

I am bit confused with this function. Should I be able to pass in a DOM element e.g. someAjaxRequest.responseXML and interrogate it ? Seems not but perhaps I am missing something... TIA Matt

All I realise that this isn''t strictly the correct place to discuss the prototype lib but being as scriptaculous is dependent on it I thought people might have some opinions. Easier to explain with the example below, copy into a html file and ensure the path to prototype.js is correct. You''ll see the first example prints an extra element "extend" when iterating over

Hi all, I''m happy to announce that I''ve completed the first version of my Ajax.RssReader object. It needs some extra''s, but the basic functionality is now available. You can download it from http://www.sayoutloud.com/javascripts/rssreader.js Usage: function myCallbackFunction( rss ) { alert(rss.channel.title); for(n=0; n<rss.items.length; n++) {

All, I have an ActiveRecord object that I need to be able to uniquely identify _before_ I actually save the object (I may not end up saving the object based on conditions). This is because I want to use the ID in another context (a file name in the filesystem). Depending on conditions, I may or may not need to do a lot of stuff between the time that I generate the object ID and actually

Hi All Before I investigate further, has anyone implemented an Autocompleter that will auto scroll down / up the results div as the user moves down through the list (using arrow keys) ? Any pointers / thoughts appreciated. Best Matt *********************************************************************************** The Royal Bank of Scotland plc. Registered in Scotland No 90312.

Are these libs compatible ? At the very least I''d like to be able to use Prototype &amp; Dojo ? Thoughts welcome..

I have a User class with a field called admin which is a boolean that determines if the user is or is not an administrator. I want to make it impossible for the last administrator for an account to be removed from the system. I need to protect against this both when deleting a user and when editing a user as you can revoke a user''s administrator privileges via a form. User

Hi all, I have a property, defined in an external stylesheet: .my_class { background-color: #FF0000; } I want to retrieve the value of this background-color of the class my_class. How can I do that with prototype/scriptaculous ? Thanks in advance, Nicolas Terray

Hey all, I''m not sure if IE can support this, but I''m trying to get the dimensions of an element that has percentages for height/width. In the example code below, I''m trying to get the dimensions for the ''MyCell'' element. Firefox supports Element.getDimensions(''MyCell''), but IE returns 0 for the height & width returned by that

...o the underlying prototype.js code by changing : element.style.display = '''' -> element.style.display = ''block''; I think the problem was with the conflicting computed CSS values. If your interested, the code is below. Thanks for all your efforts folks.

All, I''ve decided to jump into Migrations before I get too far along on the DB side of things. I already have some tables built, and I went ahead and built the migration that would have created them from scratch, and I made sure that there was a self.down section to drop them. I wanted to verify that I could roll back so I figured I would use rake to drop these pre-existing tables

>From a development standpoint, what are the features that make Ruby on Rails a better choice compared to CakePHP? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

var height = someElementReference.offsetHeight; and to set it: someElementReference.style.height = "100"; It is worth saying that offsetHeight and offsetWidth are non-standard compliance. They will give you the total rendering height and this will cause problems in IE since they use a different box model than FireFox. So you will have to do some height juggling in IE if you are using

I''m coming from an Oracle and SQL Server background. I''d like to use OpenSource for my next RoR project. MySQL5.x and Postgres8.1 seem to be the most popular. I''d like some comments on which would be the better choice for a production environment and why. Here are my initial concerns in order of priority: 1. Works well with RoR. ( migrations, etc) 2. Stable enough

One of the Mozilla developer released a new extension to detect JS memory leaks: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2490/ If it''s accurate, it might be bad news for Prototype. I have some code using prototype 1.4 with no leaks, but other code with 1.5 leaks on every single bindAsEventListener call, and a bunch of other places. Not sure if it''s just me; I may just be
