Hi I came an issue with Firefox (works for Safari and IE8 correctly) RE: Event.observe(...) vs ___.observe(...). You'll need both of the files below.
Notice that firefox only receives the fire when it is using "observe" directly on the iframe's document element. Whereas Event.observe does not work. Safari and IE8 picks up both observes and prints out both messages to console. FILE: test.html ------------------------- <html> <head> <script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script> Event.observe(window, 'load', function() { $('ifr').writeAttribute('src', 'test2.html'); }); function register(ifrDocument) { ifrDocument.observe('custom:event', function() { console.info('received fire 1'); }); Event.observe(ifrDocument, 'custom:event', function() { console.info('recieved fire 2'); }); } </script> </head> <body> <iframe id="ifr"></iframe> </body> </html> FILE: test2.html --------------------- <html> <head> <script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script> Event.observe(window, 'load', function() { parent.register(document); console.info('firing event from iframe...'); document.fire('custom:event'); }); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
