Heya, The script.aculo.us SVN repositiory now holds the 1.6 beta. This version is mostly a refactoring/bugfix release, and marks the switch over to Prototype 1.5 (Prototype 1.4.0 is no longer supported). The required prototype.js file is included (lib/prototype.js) of course. Changes since 1.5.3: * Prepare for script.aculo.us 1.6, add Prototype 1.5 requirement and check that

V1.6.1 (2006-04-06): Sortable Trees, Prototype 1.5.0_rc0 (fixes IE mem leaks)! New features in V1.6.1 and V1.6.0: * Update to Prototype 1.5.0_rc0 * Sortable trees [thx Sammi Williams, sammi-EeRYXuc1dym5PgFUrJwY1aU/zSkkHjvu@public.gmane.org] See the functional test (test/functional/sortable_tree_test.html) and the CHANGELOG for more information! * Add Draggable object as third parameter

Hi all, I''ve added a new library called sound.js to script.aculo.us, which allows for playing (mp3-based) sound effects. It works without using Flash, by using IE''s internal sound playback mechanism (BGSOUND) and falling back on using whatever plugin is used for audio/mpeg on other browsers (in real world terms, this means QuickTime or a QuickTime- compatible plugin).

Hi There, I am playing with the visual effects from script.aculo.us. I am trying to get the ''Appear'' effect to work, it appears to work a treat in Firefox on Linux and Windows, however in IE (6.x on Win Xp) it kind of half works and text is rendered badly. Is this a known problem, or am I making a mistake somewhere? Thanks, Vince

FYI: Due to some work on the server hosting script.aculo.us (and mir.aculo.us), both sites won''t be available on Friday starting about 9:00am UTC for about 3-4 hours. -Thomas

Read more on it here: http://mir.aculo.us/articles/2005/10/09/script-aculo-us-v1-5_rc3- second-release-candidate Note that it''s rc3 that follows rc1, because rc2 was the version used for the initial Rails import of script.aculo.us V1.5_rc. Thanks to all the contributors, bug reporters and testers! Thomas

I''ve seen web apps where cells within a table column can be highlighted by dragging over them. NumSum does this. Any ideas on how this is achieved? When I try to select cells in a column by dragging over them the text within rows gets selected as well.

Hi all, For those of you who don''t follow Thomas Fuch''s blog, know that a complete rewrite of InPlaceEditor / InPlaceCollectionEditor just made it into the trunk.

Heya, The latest script.aculo.us trunk features an experimental text effects feature. See a demo here (probably broken in IE, haven''t tested): http://script.aculo.us/__trunk_test/test/functional/ texteffects_test.html It works like this: The new method Effect.tagifyText(element) wraps all single characters of all text node children (not grandchildren) of the given element in

Hi list, So, some hard work today, but the Wiki is quickly taking shape. I''ve now moved all the documentation I could find into it.

Prototype.js and Thomas''s effects scripts use repeated setTimeout calls for timed looping, for instance in time-based observers. On Konqueror 3.4.1 (possibly other khtml-based browsers, too), these observers reproducibly crash the browser. Just keeping open a browser with such an observer is enough. After some time it invariably segfaults. When I substitute setInterval for setTimeout

Hi all, I just tried the latest version and saw that parts of my page stopped working. I debugged some and found out that the error is somewhere in the effects.js file. Cause if I upload the older effects.js with the latest files then it all works. I also found out that the ''new Draggable(..'' effect was the cause of the error since it works with the latest effects.js if I

Hi All, I''ve just discover scriptaculous and it is a really good library. Even if I have some difficulties with short syntax in javascript code :/ I have a strange behaviour with Effect.Highlight, and as it''s said on bug report page : "It''s also a good idea to discuss this on the Mailing List beforehand, maybe it''s already known and in the works, or it

Sorry if this sounds cynical, ( i do love script.aculo.us scripts ) , but I am wondering if people know of some good real world examples of uses of drag n drop and sortable lists. such a cute script will likely be *ab*used as much as it is used. obviously the point here is to use script.aculo.us to improve the user interface rather than just have some k00l eFX. e.g. the drag n drop instantly

Hey everyone, I have a series of thumbnails that have a loading overlay placed over them when they''re clicked on. The overlay is set to an opacity of .7.. .The onclick code looks basically does this: var loading = document.createElement(''div''); loading.id = ''loading_image''; $(loading).addClassName(''thumb_loading'');

Today marks the release of script.aculo.us 1.5_pre4 The single biggest addition are the new effects queue and the text effects. Head to http://script.aculo.us/__trunk_test/test/ run_functional_tests.html and give "effects_queue" and "texteffects_test.html" a try. As always, loads of fixes and improvements.
