Thanks a lot!
I tried searching, and found the afterFinish property... The
following code does what it needs to do. The writing and getting
attribute is probably not the nicest way to go around this, but I
don't thing the response object will be available in that function for
afterFinish, will it?
new Ajax.Request(url, {
onSuccess: function(response) {
$('promocontainer').writeAttribute("newvalue",
response.responseText);
Effect.BlindUp('promocontainer', {
duration: 1,
queue: 'front',
afterFinish: function() {
$('promocontainer').update($
('promocontainer').getAttribute("newvalue"));
}
});
//$('promocontainer').update(response.responseText);
Effect.BlindDown('promocontainer', { duration: 1 , queue:
'end'});
}
});
Again - thanks, Alex!
David.
