Oh well... Wish prototype had a version of getOffsetParent(); that worked w objects inside overflow:auto divs...

Yep - I think so. Look at around line 80 of prototype.js
function klass() {
return this.initialize.apply(this, arguments);
}
The return is something I've been using since May 2008 with all the
releases and updates since then.
I've not had any issues with my code or with scripty with it.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Is there a way to get the name of a class from within the class?
I truly wish some people would take the trouble to buy a javascript book instead of off-topic-posting in this group... meh. b. Intellectual honesty consists in taking ideas seriously. To take ideas seriously means that you intend to live by, to practice, any idea you accept as true.

[Proto-Scripty] Is there a way to get the name of a class from within the class?
Hi,
If you define a class like
var MyCoolClass = Class.create({
initialize: function() {
// find out classname here
}
});
can you get the name of the class from within itself? After all it's
just a variable-name, but is it somehow accessible?
Thank you
Lukas

[Proto-Scripty] Can I change what new [someClass] will return?
Hi,
if you define a Class like
--
var TestClass = Class.create({
initialize: function(element) {
element = $(element);
this.doFunkyStuffWithElement(element)
return element;
},
doFunkyStuffWithElement: function(element) { log("funky stuff
here") }
});
--
and you instantiate that Class
var myObject = new TestClass();
is there a way I can change it so (while namespacing my Class-Code so
Prototype's Class will remain untouched) that instantiation of that
class will return something different than what Prototype returns (in
my case a DOM-Object that has been extended with custom Methods)?

Why I want to do this: I'm working on a site where you can create
really simple webpages by adding, editing, and removing elements on
your page. To structure my code I make use of prototype's dom-
extending nature and its way of class-inheritance:
There is a base class for elements on the page which has methods for
editing and removing that object and so on. I subclass this base-class
for specific elements where I implement the specific editing/removing/
whatever-code. Now to map my functionality to the elements on the
page, I extend the DOM-Elements which you can edit/etc with the
methods and properties of the class, leaving out unnecessary
constructors etc.
But it is always a little annoying to extend an object with a class,
and then fetch that object again to work with it:
--
new EditablePicture($('the_element_I_extend'));
var my_element = $('the_element_I_extend');
my_element.do_something();
--
it would be nice to be able to do something like this:
--
var my_element = new EditablePicture($('the_element_I_extend'));
my_element.do_something();
--
Is that kind of stuff even possible?
Thank you
