Try this - I ran your code through JSLint, so not much magic on my
part:
var Comments = Class.create();
Comments.prototype = {
initialize: function(form) {
this.username = 'cmellor';
this.form = $(form);
},
// Post a comment
post: function() {
if(Spry.Widget.Form.validate(this.form) === true) {
var xhr = new Ajax.Updater('user_comments', 'configs/
ajax_functions.php?profile_comment=post', {
insertion: Insertion.Top,
parameters: {
user: this.username,
comment: $F('comment')
},
onLoading: function() {
$('comment_button').disable().value = 'Adding
Comment';
$('comment').clear().disable();
},
onSuccess: function() {
$('comment_button').value = 'Comment Posted';
}
});
}
}
};
The only major change I made is to use $() to make sure form is an
extended object, rather than a string.
Good luck!
