initialize: function(e) { this.e = e; this.e.observe('mouseover', this.onMousOver.bind(this)); this.e.observe('mouseout', this.onMousOut.bind(this)); }, On the second bit, you forgot to put "e" as a parameter to fadeIn() and fadeOut(). - Ken Snyder --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
