Sorry, I didn't notice the double brackets when I pasted those in there... The double brackets are necessary, because I've copied the code from an XSL stylesheet. The double brackets are there to "escape" the curly brackets. What gets outputted by the XSL Transformation, and therefore sent to the browser is a single pair of curly brackets.
So, if you take the code below and turn all those double curlies into single curlies.... Should that be correct? If so, I've still got a problem. /John On Fri, Mar 6, 2009 at 6:51 AM, david <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi John, > > your problem is as you say normal, because both effects take place at > the same time. > The Queue add does not resolve it because you miss the way to write > it: > > new Effect.Appear('pkgSearchFormLoading', { { queue: 'end' } }); > should be write: > > new Effect.Appear('pkgSearchFormLoading', { queue: 'end' }); or > new Effect.Appear('pkgSearchFormLoading', { queue: > { position:'end' } }); > > -- > david > > On 5 mar, 18:55, John McGowan <[email protected]> wrote: > > As I said in my last post, I'm brand new to Proto and Scripty.
