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)

Hi, i''ve been experimentating with dynamicCSS.js [1] to hide content only if JavaScript is enabled. It works pretty well and fires before onload to avoid the flash of visible content. Now i''m wondering if there is a Prototype way of doing this. [1] http://www.bobbyvandersluis.com/articles/dynamicCSS.php My main problem is that Prototype functions like Element.toggle() do

In the prototype.js library, what doe the $$ function do, and how do you use it --Will Merrell

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

Hello, please consider the following code example. It applies the onclick handler to all image tags, and through window.event it ensures that it works in IE too: -------------------------------------------------- var imgs = $(''foo'').getElementsByTagName(''img''); for(var i=0; i<imgs.length; i++) { // Apply onclick handler imgs[i].onclick=function() {

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

Hi, i have a problem with the the SlideDown and SlideUp effects. Since a similiar problem is also visible on the script.aculo.us homepage, i''m going to explain it this way. - Go to http://script.aculo.us/ - On the main site below "visual effects", click "Advanced options", the sub panel will scroll down. - Hit the close button, and while the panel is still

Hi all. I have got situation that I made element draggable - and when element is dragged I want to start some action (e.g. shown AJAX indicator, and change one of CSS class in dragging element). What is the best way to achieve this? I search source code of the Draggable and I saw that there is 2 method: Draggable.initDrag and Draggable.endDrag so it looks like in initDrag method i should

>From looking at the Prototype code, it looks like any text in the ''X-JSON'' header will be eval''d and passed as the second parameter to your onSuccess handler. Your handler function could then be (using all the power of Prototype): var handlerFunc = function(t, json) { // Update info container Element.update(''someId'', json.foo); } But your

Is there a good windows-based JavaScript compressor which will reliably compress script aculo and prototype?

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 try to use the JSON encoder/decoder on JSON string receive from an HTTPRequest. And it failed to handle characters with accents (çéèà...) giving me an parsing Exception. I think because the convertion from string to object is a simple eval ! This make Protoype unusable for non americain characterset application ! Or I miss something ! Sad ! Constant

Hi, I''m using PHP to fill my parameterlist for Autocompleter.Local as shown in the example (http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Autocompleter.Local). <script type="text/javascript"> new Autocompleter.Local(''recipeNameAlternative'', ''rezept_list'', [ <?php $ende = count($rezept_vorgabe); for ($i=0;$i<$ende;$i++) {

So, the first script.aculo.us 1.5 release candidate is out! Important changes and fixes from 1.5_pre4 (for a detailed list, see the CHANGELOG file): * Droppables w/greedy and hoverclass are now reverted when dragged item is no longer over them, fixes #2184 * Let Effect.Highlight correctly parse IE colors, add String.prototype.parseColor() for this, fixes #2037 * Make scriptaculous.js work

Having problems with the autocomplete on my linux box and firefox. When I use form tags it breaks, without form tags everything works fine. Exact copy of the example provided, but I added form tags.. The initial search and select works but then the box sort of "locks up" and I can''t change it at all, If I do try to type something nothing changes but a second later the whole

Do I need something like this: eval(''('' + this.header(''X-JSON'') + '')'') (taken from Cody Swann, http://ajaxian.com/archives/prototype-extension-dynamic-script-pattern-support ). I''m guessing my problem is simpler, and I''m leaving something small out related to the header though. Thanks for any help -Mark 1. evalJSON:

Hey Guys, I know this isn''t specific to scriptaculous libraries but it''s something that I''m exploring as I use the ajax functions in prototype. My application server is not rails but java and I was thinking of returning a javascript array in the ajax response. When I get back my response is it, of course, text and I''m not sure how best to convert it into
