Hi. I recently upgraded my prototype to the latest, I believe 1.6, js file.
There is one thing in my code which seems to be behaving differently. I have a call made with PeriodicalExecuter as follows: new PeriodicalExecuter(txIMBannerUpdate, 5); The function txIMBannerUpdate itself has an optional parameter txIMBannerUpdate(pageRefresh). I was using that parameter inside txIMBannerUpdate to determine whether or not users were updating their pages or not. When the window first loads I called txIMBannerUpdate(true) manually. The calls after that via PeriodicalExecuter would have no parameters so pageRefresh wouldn't exist. This had been working fine for years now, but since updating prototype I noticed that nobody was ever timing out as long as their browser window was open, even though they were not refreshing pages. I put an alert(pageRefresh) into the txIMBannerUpdate function and with the manual call it was still correctly sending a true parameter. But when called via PeriodicalExecuter the alert was reporting [object object] rather than nothing at all. Has this behavior changed? Is PeriodicalExecuter always causing a default parameter of some kind to be passed to its function parameter?
