similar to: Stopping Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater based on response

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 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

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

>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

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

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

Hi list, In one of my previous projects I had to satisfy the requirement of handling browser back- and forward calls within an Ajax application. Thus I didn''t get an urge to switch the JS part of this project to an other framework like dojo (which supports Browser history handling out-of-the-box), I had to come up with an idea of doing this with prototype/scriptaculous. The arisen

Hello to all list members... Exchuse for my bad english, I don''t write english very well. I''m searching for a solution to hilight a div when his value change. The value in these div is take from Ajax.Updater . the code is: new Ajax.Updater(''acc'',''tools/head_info.php'',{asynchronous:true}); and have a settimeout to recall it every 5 seconds.

I have something I want to do with the periodicalupdater.. 1) place text in a field by id (I know how to do this part as periodicalupdater makes is quite easy) 2) run a javascript statement to assign a value to a variable. Any ideas how I can do this with one periodicalupdater statement? Thanks, --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are

Hi, i''m trying to use a visual indicator for my Ajax requests. It''s based on the shopping cart demo at script.aculo.us and works great in Firefox, Konqueror and Opera, but fails in IE6. For some reason (timing problems?) onComplete is executed before onLoading, so the indicator is shown but not hidden when the request has finished. Oddly enough it works fine in the shopping

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(){$(''chatbox'').scrollTop=$

2 questions regarding the synchronization of these events. 1) is onSuccess called before onComplete ( I assume it is) 2) if called after, is onComplete called after the onSuccess method has completed or are you at the mercy of synchronization issues? Hopefully someone can enlighten me. I tried reading the Prototype.js but couldn''t seem to determine this on my own.

Hi all, Is there a known bug with Ajax.Updater not working in IE6? I''m having trouble with a Autocompleter control that calls a function that contains an Ajax.Updater as an AfterUpdateElement callback. It works fine in firefox, but I don''t think Ajax.Updater gets called under IE. http://pastebin.com/563889 1. function updater(input, item) { 2. var

Hi everyone, The onSuccess callback gets fired when HTTP status code is 200, and onComplete gets fired AFTER onSuccess/onFailure when the browser has finished handling the request, i.e. when the DOM is ready, right? So my question is where to put code that MUST ONLY be executed if HTTP status code is 200 AND Ajax.Request was called with option ''evalScripts: true''. The code in

Hello, (I originally posted this on the Prototype-Core group by mistake, sorry) I am running a request via Ajax.Updater with evalScripts = true and an onComplete function. I find that my onComplete function executes before the script content has been evaluated. Looking through prototype.js (v. 1.5.1) this seems to be caused by the scripts being executed as part of this line (1352):

Hi everyone, I have a script below that submits a form using Ajax.Request which is working fine. onComplete or onSuccess though, I''d like it to refresh the div form (formCapture), but so far I can''t get it to work. The script runs to into the onComplete stage, but the div isn''t refreshed. Can anyone help with this? Regards, Robert Hofmeyr function subForm() { new

Hello , I have a PeriodicalUpdater executing every x seconds and sends a ajax request to update an element. Each time it comes back, the element is getting replaced with some html and and possibly <script>coolFunction()</script>. This seems to work fine when for prototype 1.5. However when I upgraded to prototype 1.6, it seems to execute coolFunction() as many times as the request has
