You're welcome. :) I've used them here locally for a while in my own projects, and am finally getting around to cleaning out a bunch of stuff that I should've uploaded to CPAN ages ago. > And, has anyone written up a comparison of these (JS) libraries? I'm sure its out there, but URLs don't come to mind. That said, all the JS libraries in these Alien packages are somewhat complimentary; I'm using all of them together on at least one project. Only thing to watch out for, though, is that many of the JS libraries come with their own bundled copy of "Prototype" (http://www.prototypejs.org/), and the provided version varies depending on when those JS libraries were released. With the current versions of these Alien packages on CPAN, the "Alien::scriptaculous" package has the most recent version; if you're installing files from multiple packages, do this one last. :) I'd considered the idea of setting up a separate "Alien::prototype" package to contain the latest version of Prototype and then have everything else depend on that instead, but haven't yet had a chance to fully think about how to handle things like version conflicts or dependencies on old copies of Prototype. So, for now at least, each of these Alien:: packages comes "standalone" and has no requirements on any other Alien:: package. -- Graham TerMarsch Howling Frog Internet Development, Inc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Web Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=cgiapp&r=1&w=2 To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
