Is there a way to cancel a specific effect? For instance; Effects are added to the queue. Before actually processing the effect, I''d like to check a condition & cancel the effect if necessary. Here''s the code excerpt: var menu = { toggleText: function(element,toggle) { var vis = $(element+''Text'').visible(); if (toggle && !vis)

Hello, I''m using scriptaculous library (in symfony) v. 1.6.1 Great library !!!!! I have a problem. While in IE6 it''s all ok (the autocomplete field works perfectly) in FF 1.5.0.2 the field apparently isn''t working. If I try the example in the scriptaculous homepage (v. 1.4.0_pre4 of Prototype) doesn''t work with FF, while the simple online demo, that uses

Hi i was wondering if there is a quick way to search for a item within an array. Here is my approach for this functionality. It''s an prototype for an Array method called "has": Array.prototype.has = function(needle) { for (var i=0;i<this.length;i++) { if(this[i] == needle){ return true; } } return false; } var someArray = [''jim'',

Hi, I''m a PHP developer and I''m think about migration to rails... my big problem is about printing web Reports, well I could not found a good thing to help me with this... Does Ror or some other ruby project have some thing to help about make/print database reports? tks

I just ran across this bug when trying to re-create Ben Nolan''s behaviour.js with prototype and was wondering if anyone had fixed it before I went re-inventing the wheel :) Thanks! -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen ++ kitchen-RA8HwDor7flnDGu+y90WmgC/G2K4zDHf@public.gmane.org http://ipaction.org/ -- defend your rights to fair use _______________________________________________

I''m currently using "The Ultimate getElementsByClassName" (http://www.robertnyman.com/2005/11/07/the-ultimate-getelementsbyclassname/) instead of the Prototype version. This version seems to be faster since it lets you specify the starting node and the type of entity. For example: var widgets = getElementsByClassName(document, "ol", "tree"); Is

Hi Guys, Maybe this is a stupid question, but I am confused at the moment. The $F() function is a handy shortcut to get the value of the an input field. So, doing something like $F(''name'') is equivalent to document.formname.name.value which is pretty cool. Now, what if I have 2 forms on the page, that same field name "name"? What would $F return? It does not take

Hello all, I''m new to prototype and javascript isn''t my strong point. I''m trying to get a simple test script to work, which is turning out to be a little harder than I thought. I have a bunch of fields that I need to be able to switch on and off using one of a few hashes. In the example below I''m trying to get one to work. The problem occurs when I try to

Hello, following code fragment given: ~~~ function jsPostAppend(script, form_id) { if(form_id) //parameters=''&'' + $(form_id).serialize() // first flavour parameters=''&'' + Form.serialize($(form_id)) // second flavour [...] ~~~ This works perfect for FF2, IE7 and Safari3 (in both flavours). With Opera 9.x, I get the following javascript errors:

I''ve just had a look again at the autocompletion demo that Thomas put up at http://script.aculo.us/demos/ajax/autocompleter Unfortunately, in Konqueror (3.4.1) it doesn''t work at all. Not even an error is triggered. It does work nicely in Firefox. How about Safari? I don''t have the time right now to track this down systematically (maybe latter), but just from

Hi all. I''m writing some kind of filter that i want passby my all AJAX request, and I stuck. I create object and pass him to Ajax Responders like this: var myGlobalHandlers = { onCreate: function(){ Element.show(''loading''); }, onComplete: function(request) { alert(request.responseText); } };

Hi list, First, I have a textbox "username". I also have an Autocompleter'd textbox called "products". Is there a "built in" way to have the Autocompleter's Ajax Request pass the value in the "username" field ? (I tried adding "parameters: $F('username')" to the Autocompleter's options, but, that grabs the initial username

I have been working with the Ajax.Autocompleter for about a day so forgive my ignorance. Is there any value in adding additional callbacks. I want perform an action when the user selects a choice. So I was thinking of adding an option {select: function(selectedElement) {}} similar to the callbacks on Ajax.Request in the prototype library. Call me out if you think I am crazy my feelings

I just wrote a stupid little JS object to rotate DOM Elements (mainly images) using Prototype and Script.aculo.us as support. Everything seems to work well on IE and Firefox Linux but on FireFox Windows I am getting a slight flash prior to transition. I was wondering if a effects guru could take a quick look and see if anything jumps out. I can live with the flash for my current project but

Hi (I think Thomas?), I am trying to extending the AJAX autocompleter here, and would need to pass on additional params to the Framework I am using which is taking on the request. For this, I have changed the onObserverEvent function in controls.js as to the following: onObserverEvent: function() { this.changed = false; if(this.element.value.length>=this.options.min_chars) {

Hey all, I''ve recently started messing around with Prototype again, so I thought I''d start small and write 5 lines of code that would check if all fields in a form are filled out. So I thought document.observe(''dom:loaded'', function() { $(''submNewUser'').disable(); new Form.Observer($(''newUser''), 0.3, function(e, val) {

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has implemented the inplace editor without the need for the URL. I have tried this but run into a problem in that the ''saving...'' text in shown for ever and the label is no longer editable. Can I also confirm that my idea of the callback function is something that runs before the value is passed to the URL (if you were to use one). What might be

Hi all, I just started using prototype 1.3.1. I''ve successfully used Form.Element.EventObserver on a select list and recently tried to add it to radio options. However, I think there is a flaw in how it works with radio options. Radio options are a little unusual in that there are multiple distinct elements, tied together by a common name, where changing one element causes a

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
