The div isnt allways created by click .. its called by my method/function if
and when i need it .. this is the trouble i am having ...
At the moment ive got the method to check for a click (in my tests) and it
finds the div (as you have put below - this was my first approach at it
yesterday !!)... but it gets made by the function making it then immediatly
removed by the remove handler function
// by now the element is built so observe the document
Event.observe(document, 'click', removeErrorElement);
},
removeErrorElement : function() {
if($('errortooltip')) { // always locates because in my test i call it
from a click
$('errortooltip').remove(); // always removes because in my test i
call it from a click
//alert('Found Element'); // always alerts because in my test i call it
from a click
Event.stopObserving(document, 'click', removeErrorElement); // what i
want to do here is stop observing the document for a click for that specific
function and listen for everything else .. if this makes sense !
}
....................
Thanks
Alex
