[Rails-spinoffs] Re: Element.remove() function clash

[Brad Ediger]

Prototype extends HTML Elements with functions that proxy to the Element class. So "remove()" is really calling "this.remove()", which gets proxied to "Element.remove(this)", which removes the <input> element. I would recommend renaming the remove function.

Why do these clash when I do the following:   <input type="button" value="Delete" /> Instead of calling the remove function I defined, it actually removes the delete button. --  Michael Peters Developer Plus Three, LP --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
