[Rails-spinoffs] Re: Using array.each with Element.hide

Hmm, interesting. Ok, I know this is a bit off topic, but can someone tell me why this is not working as I think it should?

The onMouseOut activates when I move the mouse away from the link that has the onMouseOver, not when I move the mouse out from the DIV. I tested this in Firefox and IE and it does the same thing. I can do a onMouseOver the DIV as a test and it works fine.

----------------------

function ShowMenu($sMenu){

var $aMenus = new Array();

$aMenus = ['submenu_reporting', 'submenu_forms', 'submenu_tickets'];

$aMenus.each(Element.hide)

if($sMenu != '') Element.show($sMenu);

}

</script>

<div class="toplinks"

style="width: 100%; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; border-bottom: 1px solid #000000;

background-color: #FFFFFF; height: 50px;" onMouseOut="ShowMenu('')">

<a href="http://sharepoint">Home</a> |

<a <?php if($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] != '/rm5_reporting.php') echo 'href=""'?>

onMouseOver="ShowMenu('submenu_reporting')">

RM5 Reporting</a> |

<a <?php if($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] != '/form_menu.php') echo 'href=""'?>

onMouseOver="ShowMenu('submenu_forms')">Forms</a> |

<a style="color: #000066" onMouseOver="ShowMenu('submenu_tickets')">Tickets</a>

<a href="/admin.php?sMode=Report">Open IT Tickets</a> |

<a href="/viewtickets.php">Open By User</a> |

<a href="/submitticket.php?catid=1">Computer</a> |

<a href="/submitticket.php?catid=2">Maintenance</a> |

<a href="/submitticket.php?catid=3">Face Sheets</a> |

</div>

or that way ;)

['submenu_reports', 'submenu_forms', 'submenu_tickets'].map($).invoke('hide');

cheers

You can also do:

$aMenus.each(Element.hide);

this way, each item of the array will get passed into a Element.hide
() call,
no need for the extra inline function definition.

Best,
Thomas
