Thanks so much for your detailed reply Eric and thank you for the resources. Would it be silly to use both ?
Yes, it would be silly to use both, because prototype+scriptaculous and mootools try to do a lot of the same things. The mootools guys coded their library such that it wouldn't conflict w/ prototype, but I wouldn't recommend using them together if it can be helped. Just pick one foundational javascript library (whether it be prototype, jquery, mootools, dojo, mochikit, or whatever...) and go with it. And when you pick a javascript library, it's like you're marrying it. Although it *is* possible to use multiple foundational libraries one a single site, doing so tends to not work so well. For one thing, it introduces a lot of redundancy which is wasteful. Another annoyance is that sometimes libraries can conflict w/ each other if they're inadvertently using the same namespace for something. ...so beware. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
