I have a div (with overflow:auto) that gets stuff added to it via Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater, and I''d like to keep it scrolled to the bottom all the time, unless the user manually scrolls away from the bottom (and be able to return it to its bottom-sticky form afterwards) I''m not sure if this is just some css trickery I need to do, or if it requires some javascript to do it.

when using prototype and Class.create(), what''s the preferred method of creating a subclass? say I have a real simple class: var Testing = Class.create(); Object.extend(Testing.prototype, { initialize: function() { ... }, ... }); would I subclass it as so? var SubClass = Class.create(); Object.extend(Object.extend(SubCLass.prototype, Testing.prototype), { ...

Hi folks. I''m working on a project where I need some drag and drop, but I need to implement what happens in a very different way, so I''m creating my own class for it. I don''t want to reinvent the wheel and redo Thomas'' excellent drag/drop functionality, nor do I want to copy/paste his code over into mine. So, I was wondering, has anyone tried to extract

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 have this line of code: new Effect.toggle(document.getElementsByClassName(''modarea'', Event.findElement(ev,''li'')), ''blind''); I''ve confirmed that the Effect.toggle is indeed getting the proper element, however, I''m getting this in my javascript console: element.visible is not a function (effects.js: line 153) I

anyone have any information on how to effectively use this? Event.observe() doesn''t return anything, and nothing I''ve tried is actually removing the event listeners from the objects. -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen ++ kitchen-RA8HwDor7flnDGu+y90WmgC/G2K4zDHf@public.gmane.org In the beginning was The Word and The Word was Content-type: text/plain -- The Word of Bob.

Hi folks, I''m pretty new to javascript and prototype, so I just want to get some peer-review on a function I wrote that makes a handy (at least, it seems handy) way to set a group of attributes on an element easily. Object.extend(Element.prototype, { setAttributes: function(attrs) { var el = this; $H(attrs).each( function(attr) { el.setAttribute(attr[0], attr[1]);

I thought the duration parameter was only used with Effect functions, but I could be wrong.

No comment on the usefulness of your function, as I''ve yet to try it. But for the "this" scope problem, try this... (removed your var and added the bind(this) after the function declaration. I didn''t test it though so you might want to give it whirl. It might introduce a different scope problem with the "attr" var but I think it should work.

Is there no better way to merge one array into another than iterating over the array you wish to append with each() and push()ing the elements on to the other array? Here''s what I mean: var arr1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; var arr2 = [''a'', ''b'', ''c'']; $A(arr2).each(function(el) { arr1.push(el) }); Is there no better way to do it than this?

I''m using prototype 1.4.0 in a big web application I''ve been working on for months and today a bug was raised by one of our testers. After investigation it turns out that something done 0 times will actually fire once. So, for example, if I had (0).times( function(i) { alert(i); } ); it''d fire once rather than not at all. Is this a bug in prototype or the

Does anybody have a solution that really works nice? I know about: http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/accordion%20feature but I was hoping someone had worked out the kinks. I''m really looking for something like: http://openrico.org/rico/demos.page?demo=rico_accordion Thanks for your time. Joe _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

Is there a reason scriptaculous provides what appears to be a redundant function? The reason I''m asking is that it only seems to be used twice throughout all of scriptaculous, and it doesn''t appear to work properly (for some reason it''s returning the actual element, rather than an array with all of the elements) If there is no reason, I''ll modify it to use

Isn''t the difference that the scriptaculous one only gets child nodes from the node you specify, whereas the prototype one gets all in the entire document? Still, it would be nice to just have the one, and let you pass in the document element if you wanted all of them. Just guessing, really. I haven''t looked at the code in question.

Hey all, I working on a project, but I am not sure I can do what I want to do. The following works beautifully: Event.observe(el, ''click'', function () { this.className += " myClass"; return false; }); I have also tried doing this: this.varname = ''test''; Event.observe(el, ''click'', function () { alert (this.varname); }.bind

Hi All, I am working on a page that has 4 configuration sections at the bottom of the page with 4 links to them higher up on the page. We are using the Effects.BlindDown to show the lower section when the corresponding link is clicked. We also use the "new Effects.ScrollTo(''DIVTag'')" to have the page scroll to the newly opened section. Now this works fine in
