>From a quick look at the source code, it looks like onComplete is only called when the whole thing is done - in the case of Updater, right after the update, in the case of PeriodicalUpdater, right after it has been stopped. It looks like you need to pass your callback method as an ''insertion'' method in the options. This takes two parameters, the first will probably be the

Using the PeriodicalUpdater, I''m finding the onComplete is not firing. I thought I''d get some feedback here before filing a bug report. http://ianty.com/updater/update_test_1.6.0.1.html http://ianty.com/updater/update_test_1.6.0.html The above are examples of this for prototype 1.6.0 & 1.6.0.1. I''m expecting the onComplete to fire after the update takes place, per

The only call that PeriodicalUpdater will make periodically to you is the insertion call. I think of onComplete as being ''I''ve done everything I was going to do'', which for Updater is right after it''s done a single update, but for PeriodicalUpdater, it''s after it''s finished all of its updates, so you''ll only get it once for any call

Hello All, I''ve seen this topic but it seems no one has post a response. I''m using periodicalUpdater to display live content queried from a database. Sometimes the result can be thousands of rows and before it finishes processing (displaying as a visual indicator) all the data, the next request is sent to the server. I''d like to have a periodicalUpdater whose

In a controller, I''m trying to do def do_some_periodic_thing render :update page << ''var foo = new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater("someDiv", "/some/path", {asynchronous:true, frequency:1, evalScripts:true} );'' end end In the view, I have <%= link_to_remote "Test Periodical", :url => { :action =>

Hi, I''m using Upload Progress class of rails and geting this javascript error in js console: "*Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater is not a constructor*" The view have somethink like: <%= form_tag_with_upload_progress( {:action => ''create_gallery''}, { :name => ''new_gallery'', :begin =>

Well, I''ve been burning the midnight oil trying to figure out how to issue the stop() command to a PeriodicUpdater. I''ve come up with a solution that uses setTimeouts to call the stop function. I think my solution is very kludgey... especially since I''m new to Javascript + Prototype. Can anyone let me know if the below code is at all proper? :) --------- Summary: A

Hello, Say a package (call it pkgA) has this in its DESCRIPTION file: Suggests: foo (>= 1.2.3) And yet I only have version 1.2.2 of foo installed, which does not include coolFunction(). pkgA's vignette has this code chunk: library(foo) coolFunction() When I run R CMD build on my package, it will fail, saying that coolFunction() could not be found, but I would prefer it say (like it

Hello all, I know it''s a Prototype question, but I hope someone can tell me what I''m doing wrong (I hope Prototype gets documented soon ;-( Problem: using a onComplete callback with Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater (using scriptaculous 1.5 with Prototype 1.4) Works: function fooBar() { Element.hide(''foobar''); } new

I have an Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater updating a div on my page and I want to be able to execute the stop method when the div contains certain content. As I understand it, I cannot pass in an options.onComplete handler and onSuccess is executed before the response is completely interpreted by the browser. I tried using Ajax.Responders, but that didn''t seem to help. Do I need use AjaxUpdater

Greetings all, So, I''ve finally found a place to play around with the Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater. In looking at the API, I''m liking the decay option -- not necessarily for my current purpose, but just to keep in mind -- and I have a question: can the decay be a function which returns an integer? Basically, why I''m looking for is a logarithmic decay (where the system

I have the following code: <script type="text/javascript"> Event.observe(window, ''load'', function() { var updater = new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater(''chatbox'', ''chat.php'', {method: ''get'', asynchronous: true, frequency: 0.55, decay: 2, onSuccess: function(){$(''chatbox'').scrollTop=$

Hi *, We don''t know if you guys are the right audience, but we got a problem with prototype.js we need to solve. Essentially, it is a compatibility bug with the IE. We wrote a component so it updates itself periodically using AJAX. we used the prototype.js to accomplish this (using the periodicalUpdater object). now the component works fine using firefox or opera, but NOT with IE. the

Hi folks. So far I have managed to get dataloading into a div froma php script. This script just passes the time on the server in a div to the javascript below. I am trying to get the last loaded data to call Effect.Highlight but it seems to highlight the 2nd last data instead. Can anyone see what''s going wrong here? I''ve tried everywhere to solve this. Check the code in action

In my app i upload a file, convert it with ffmpeg, delete the original and make a small thumbnail out of the big thumbnail ffmpeg makes.
