Please help...
I am a bit concerned here as things are not behaving quite as i expect
them to...
FF3 / 1.2 final
Basically, a simple idea - intercept links to full view of images and
code something like slimbox - in pseudo code, it goes like:
<a href="/blah.jpg" class="full"><img src="/blah_thumb.jpg" /></a>
...
$$(".full").addEvents({
"click": function(e) {
var e = new Event(e).stop();
new Asset.image(el.get("href"), {
onload: function() {
// do stuff... like modal view, center
// big mamaries....
this.inject(somewhere);
},
onerror: function() {
// i assume, failing to get image should
// alert here
alert("image not found?");
},
onabort: function() {
// same as above.
alert("image not found");
}
}
}
});
when it works, it works fine - the problem is, sometimes the a href points
to a missing image (404). i don't want to be building a modal view,
setting events and so forth if that's the case, i need to trap and
discard the click silently instead, removing the click event and so
forth. but "onfail" never fires, neither does onabort...
To quote the manual page:
http://docs.mootools.net/Plugins/Assets#Assets:image
WARNING: DO NOT use addEvent for load/error/abort on the returned element,
give them as onload/onerror/onabort in the properties argument.
now what? :(
