Hello, I just got done trying to find some documentation on how to use the Ajax functions in prototype and found no luck except for in this list. I am wondering if anyone is willing to help me start a wiki for these scripts. I have website that I will gladly use to host this. please let me know if anyone else see''s the value in this. If everyone is up for doing this I will be more

Can someone please explain to me what I need to do to create an Ajax class using the prototype lib.

Hello, Is it possible to send the current value of a second form element with the AJAX request on the Autocompleter? At the moment, I initialise the Autocompleter on page load, so any parameters passed in the constructor are given the value set at page load time. I need to obviously pass in the value of the second form element when the autocompleter is called. Does this function already exist,

Hi Tim, Thanks for the commentary, you bring a good point to light: I think the asynchronous nature of AJAX needs to be looked at more carefully in our UI assumptions. The key difference between AJAX auto-complete and any other browser/OS autocomplete is that we can''t guarantee having the results ready by the time the user wants to hit TAB. In the old days we used to have everything

Here is an example that seems perfect for Ajax that I have not seen implemented nor can figure out how to do it. I am hoping someone can give me some pointers. On the sign-up page, I would like to do my validations (password length, username uniqueness,etc ) Ajax-style. But if all validates, then redirect to the success page. The combining of redirection to a new page with Ajax is throwing me.

What tools does everyone use to develop? Are there any tools to see what is going to and coming back from and Ajax call that can be plugged into firefox? -- Eric Fleming efleming@gmail.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

hi everyone, it''s my first time tonight. great script lib you''ve got there. i spent a whole day trying to code myself, use tutorials, use dreamweaver timeline animation - when i was about knocked out by the heavy draw backs i stumbled upon this truly mir.aculo.us library and all i ever asked for became true! thanks! one question though: is it possible to disallow

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''ve noticed slightly erratic behaviour with the autocompleter on IE. In controls.js, the render method calls the (IE only) scrollIntoView method, which causes the element to be moved to the bottom or the top of the viewport (by passing in true or false, bizzarely). This is perfectly acceptable behaviour for render in general, but this causes the dropdown list to jump around as

How do you pass the selected value to the function? new Ajax.Autocompleter(''text'', ''auto'', ''file'', {paramName:''autocomplete'', updateElement:sayhi}); function sayhi(???){ alert(???); } I''ve tried element and element.value but that didn''t work. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You

Hey All, So now that we''re up to 7 files, and hopefully more coming as the project grows, minimizing load latency seems much more important. Maybe it''s time to consider creating a single file distribution, much like what prototype.js is (a concatination of 6 or so other files)? re: packaging suggestions *) scriptaculous_only.js - all of the scriptaculous components w/o

Hi, has anyone come across any incompatibilities between file_column and login_engine? I''ve been having strange issues where a User model with file_column in it is failing to save the images properly. Everything uploads to the tmp dir fine, but then it never gets copied to the proper permanent location. No errors - everything happens fine except for that final part. I have

So here''s the deal. I don''t know the innards of rails well enough to do this quickly but you might.

You pick the toppings, I''ll call ''em and order it up for you. Yeah a pizza isn''t much but I''m

I''m trying to do an IN query, where I have an array of user objects imaginatively named ''users'': :conditions=>["user_id IN (?)", users.collect{|u| u.id }.join('','')] this ends up with: ... IN(''1,2,3'') ... Obviously I want this to be: ... IN(1,2,3) ... or even ... IN(''1'', ''2'',

I''m trying to deploy an app on Dreamhost and I''m getting the infamous 500 Server Error. Nothing in the rails logs because it looks to be happening before it gets there. In the apache error logs we have: [Wed Apr 12 12:51:51 2006] [error] [client 194.80.32.9] FastCGI: comm with (dynamic) server "/home/rlivsey/thatsprogress.com/current/public/dispatch.fcgi"

Greetings! I''m attempting to use the act_as_versioned plugin to provide versioning functionality for my rails app, but can''t think my way through this: How can you use act_as_versioned to perform versioning on a HABTM join table? It is easy to see how to do so for join models (:has_many :through) but not so for the join table. I want to use act_as_versioned to maintain

I''m trying to use file_column in an app I''m writing. Simple file uploads are working fine. However, when I try and use the :magick options to make resized versions, WEBrick dies. This is the Media model: class Media < ActiveRecord::Base file_column :media_item, :magick => { :versions => { :thumb => {:size =>

Hi all, I''m developing an app on a home Windows computer and using SVN/Capistrano to deploy to a Linux server. I''m encountering some bizarre behavior that I think has something to do with Linux and Windows text file types, but I''m not sure. What''s happening is that, whenever I edit my view files and reload the page in my local browser, I see errors saying

Can you do a periodically_call_remote to an action but then not display any new view? say the new action was called ADD. I don''t want to do an rhtml file for add, and I don''t want to render anything in the controller... I want to leave the page as it is. How is this done?

So I was doing some experimenting with prototype and ajax and discovered something interesting. When I use the first ajax call the response from the server take 53ms. When I use the second on using the prototype functions the request from the server is over 200ms. My question is why, and can it be fixed? <p><a href="#" onclick="serverSideAlert();">Call
