similar to: Removing all event listeners

1. Create a separate class that has your highlight/unhighlight behavior in it, and extend just the element you want to highlight with that class... like this (also allows you to easily apply this behavior elsewhere when you need it in the future): Object.extend(this.el, HighlightBehaviorClass.prototype) 2. When defining your event handlers, assign them to variables so you have a

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 all, I'm using behaviour(.js) to add event handlers to all the table cells in a table (mouseover, mouseout, clickk). However, I'm also ditching the table and replacing it with an Ajax.Updater so I want to remove all the observers before I lose them. Unfortunately, the Event.observe calls were written as inline anonymous functions so, when calling Event.stopObserving, I'm supposed

Just wondering why Event.stopObserving() doesn''t remove the itself from the Event.obervers array?

Hey guys I have an interesting problem - I have some draggable elements (sortable actually), with links (<A>) inside them. I want the user to be able to click on the link, however if the user drags the element I don''t want the link to get fired. Can anyone think of a way to do this? It only needs to work in Firefox. Cheers -Rob

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() {

Hi guys! i know prototype can create custom events and can subscribe to it, but is there already a library for this? thanks! -- <script> ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// REDBAKS=function (){ var b,r,i,a,n="b=''646f63756d656e742e777269746528225"+ "4686572652773206d6f7265207468616e206f6e65207761792"+

Avoiding real work I decided to try and clean up my html and remove my inline onclick handlers for Ajax.Updater calls. Here''s the inline method I''ve been using: http://hank.org/demos/ajax-inline.html Now, here''s using <script> sections to apply the behavior. http://hank.org/demos/ajax.html (firefox only) Since the links (tabs) are inside the

Hi all, I have this code: new Ajax.Request(''non_existant.file'', { onSuccess:function(){alert("yay");}, onFailure:function(){alert("boo");} }); Why does the onFailure alert never get called? It works fine if I use a real file (onSuccess gets called). Thanks, Douglas

Hello boys and girls In the ever-loving spirit of OSS, here''s another feature for s.a.u. In particular it''s called Effect.Accordion, and is a scriptaculified version of openrico''s Accordion. Work in progress, I''ll submit further modifications as the come in, but this is 90% of what needs to be done. I anticipate some bugs when I start using it more. Tested

By default the prototype.js gives us the function /* prevent memory leaks in IE */ Event.observe(window, ''unload'', Event.unloadCache, false); But there is no unload event in out application as the content of the div keeps changing using the Ajax.Updater function. To handle such a scenario, we''ve added the following lines of code to prototype.js /* prevent

If I want to stop observing a div Is this the format? Event.stopObserving($(''''mydiv''),''click''); Deco

Hi all. I have some performance tips to share. I had been having problems with the overall performance of the drag/drop objects. This is due largely to the fact that my project really pushes the limits (potentially thousands of draggables and hundreds of droppables in the document at a time, although that is the extreme case). Something I discovered is that the performance of dragging goes WAY

I''m going crazy here. I''m trying to stop a link from being followed after it''s clicked. It works everywhere except Safari (using v. 2.0.2 on Tiger) I''m using behavior.js to attach events based on a class or an id: ******************************************************* function loadData(e) { // load some data here based on the url of the a tag

Attached is a patch to allow Ajax.InPlaceCollectionEditor to load the collection using AJAX. It adds a new option, loadOptionsURL, which is the URL used to load the values over the interweb. It expects the server to return <option></option> values. If one of them has a selected="selected" attribute, it will probably be pre-selected. Not tested that though. Also only tested

I have created a JavaScript object which is initialized for some input fields, fieldsets, and divs on the page. With each object i attach a mouseover and mouseout event that highlights and un-highlights. Also on mouseout i am trying to display the id of the object to a console. The highlighting works except for cases when an object is the child of another object. In this case both are highlighted

What are the pros and cons of using Event.observe vs. element.onxxx = somefunction ? I noticed that a lot of sau code doesn''t use Event.observe. For example, InPlaceEditor uses this.form.onsubmit = this.onSubmit.bind(this); In my code I''ve made a habit of using the equivalent (for example): this.onSubmitListener = this.onSubmit.bind(this);
