 Hi all,

 I just wanted to share with you my BGEffects component for
 script.aculo.us. BGEffects is a library for creating perspective animations
 (aka parallax effect) using background images from nested (but not only)
 containers. You can see it in action on the project page 
 at:http://www.almeida.ch/projects/BGEffects/

 BGEffects was initially released for Scripty2 but, as development seems to
 be in standby mode, I decided to port it to script.aculo.us and jQuery.
 Currently, I am still working on some performance issues and trying to
 delegate animation to native CSS3 transitions when available.

 Feel free to review the code and report any bugs, comments or suggestions.

 Have fun!

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Image cache problem with Ajax

2011-09-29 Thread ncubica
i know you resolve your problem but It wont be easy if you delete from

 I didnt address the caching because I had to look to see if I could find
 where I had saved this link off the last time I had this problem... found
 it!

 The caching is probably on the browser side, not the server side.  Setting
 the server side cache variables will only affect the page reload.

 The browser knows better than to cache on refresh/reload BUT technically, to
 the browser, you are not reloading and since the image has the same name it
 doesn't really know that you need a refresh.

 This guy had a solution that worked for me:http://www.irt.org/script/416.htm

 I have also used the cheap trick of adding a random query string on to the
 end of the image 
 url:http://www.somedomain.com/images/newname.jpg?id=random_numberand since 
 this
 will always generate a new url, the browser will refresh the image.

  This is an interesting problem... my first reaction is that you'd want
  to use onComplete to update the div's instead of onSuccess.

  Test this with a couple of alerts and see which one gets called first and
  which is last (just as onCreate is the first call, onComplete is the last).

  To my way if thinking, if you wait until onComplete gets triggered before
  you do any UI updates, all the images on the server should be properly in
  place.

   Does ALL the JS work take place inside the onSuccess callback?

   The Back in JS bit has to be part of the onSuccess callback
   otherwise it will happen out of sequence. The A in AJAX is potentially
   the hiccough here.

   That's what I suspected but yes, all the 'back in JS' stuff does indeed
  happen in the onSuccess. (I also tried onComplete, but got the same 
  result.)
  I think the problem may be that the div, inevitably, is replaced right at
  the end of the process (at the end of the onSuccess), and only then is the
  offending img tag unleashed, calling either the image itself or my little
  php script... but then I'd have thought preloading it might help, but it
  doesn’t seem to. I also tried loading it via a php exec() call to the image
  script in advance of returning the output string to JS, but that didn’t
  help.

   What also convinces me that you're right about the A in AJAX is that
  when, for testing, I put a sleep(5) in the image script - which should hold
  it up by a whole 5 seconds - the div is still replaced immediately. When I
  first load the page (which also calls this script), I get a broken image
  icon where the image should have been, replaced after 5 seconds by the
  image, but when the div is replaced by the ajax call that doesn’t happen - 
  I
  just get no change of image as before.

   It really would be /so/ nice if I could get this working! It's for a
  password-protected CMS, so the world at large will never get the benefit,
  and I could simply reload the whole page instead of just the one div, but
  it's become a challenge!

  Create a test case where it goes wrong. Write new clean code that
  doesn't want/need/use anything from the main project.

  At best, this will be a small HTML page with some divs and images, a
  JS file to allow the onclick to fire the AJAX code, along with the
  onsuccess and the server side code to handle the request and to return
  the new HTML markup.

  Without seeing the server and client side code, you are going to be
  stuck with a limited level of support.

  If you can't reduce the problem to something that can be read, I doubt
  anyone can realistically provide any more ideas on this.

are the most near with the core team. So I would like to know if you
could email one of them and try to start designate person for

designate a OFFICIAL Site for hosted documentation and more important

space for comments or is NOT organice in a way where you can easy find
the widget you are expect or more important ask to the community where
to find it or maybe build it by more experience developer,

I think is why jquery have grow that huge beside of the money behind
it. Cause a lot of designers with a lack knowledge of javascript can
use it... happend with php vs java... and a lot more examples out
there, We have to reinvent the way of how we communicate prototype...
to everybody out there

So please talk with them, I have a fully compromise for work with this
project a least 1 year... and this is because I explote my javascript

 Hi,

 This was _JUST_ gone into, in 
 depth:http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-scriptaculous/browse_thread/...

 I think this is a fair-ish (but incomplete) summary:

 1. Prototype is a spare-time activity for a very small number of
 people. In fact, at the moment I think it's mostly just Andrew, and he
 has other things he does (like, you know, hold down a full-time job).
 Just recently the project largely lost another major contributor to
 his job and family commitments.

 2. Andrew has no plans to stop working on Prototype on any time soon.

 3. Prototype work is done in fits and spurts, long periods of
 inactivity followed by a period (couple of weeks) of feverish
 activity.

 4. jQuery has multiple corporate sponsors, not least Microsoft, and
 there are people paid to work on it full time. Thus it's able to be
 much more up-to-date and proactive than Prototype.

 A quote from Andrew in the thread linked above:

 On Aug 23, 1:07 am, Andrew Dupont googlegro...@andrewdupont.net
 wrote:

  I will say, though, that if we're crowning winners and losers, then
  jQuery won a long time ago. It is certainly the _de facto_
  JavaScript library for web development. The good news is that the
  losers of the war aren't looking so bad; libraries like Prototype,
  MooTools, and Dojo still have loyal user bases, and I doubt they're
  going away.

 My personal perspective, for what it's worth (e.g., possibly exactly
 what you're paying for it, nothing :-) ) is based on some data points:

 1. The last blog post on the Prototype blog was 10 months ago.

 2. The library has had basically no activity since v1.7 was released
 November 2010.

 3. The most recent three releases were:
    v1.7 - November 2010
    v1.6.1 - September 2009
    v1.6.0.3 - September 2008

 Three releases, in total, including dot releases, in the last three
 years. Compare with 16 releases (four major ones) of jQuery in that
 time period (v1.3 through v1.6.4).

 4. Absolute use and trends:

 Absolute use:http://trends.builtwith.com/javascript
 Prototype trend:http://trends.builtwith.com/javascript/Prototype
 jQuery trend:http://trends.builtwith.com/javascript/JQuery

 5. Questions tagged on StackOverflow:

 jQuery:    114,842
 Prototype:   2,152

 ...which could, of course, just mean that Prototype is so much better
 it generates fewer questions, or that people using Prototype don't use
 StackOverflow, or that people are mis-tagging JavaScript questions
 jquery (I see that a fair bit), or some combination of those.

 Does all this mean Prototype is dead? No, not a bit of it. But it has
 a very small staff with other major demands on their time, and has no
 funding. Andrew's quite clear that it's not dead, and also that it
 will continue in much the way it has these last three years.

 I made the business, not technical, decision years ago to use jQuery
 rather than Prototype. In many ways I prefer Prototype, although there
 are some good ideas in jQuery (also some phenomenally bad ones, such
 as how overloaded the API is). I still pitch in and moderate this
 mailing list, and still answer questions, but for me the business case
 is: Which library amongst the large number out there is kept up-to-
 date; jumps on testing new browser versions for compatibility; has a
 large ecosystem of code I can use; has a large pool of talent I can
 hire or contract; has well-maintained, frequently updated and
 extended, reliable, and documented UI helpers (jQueryUI vs.
 Script.aculo.us); and is likely to be around long-term without heroic
 effort from a single individual, or a small set of individuals. So I
 went with jQuery, despite preferring Prototype in many ways. [I also
 looked at Dojo, ExtJS, (more recently) Closure, and a few others.]

 It could have gone another way. People like me could have done more to
 contribute to the project; leadership could have focussed on core
 functionality, community-building, and developer (um) development
 rather than side-issues; corporate sponsorship could have been courted
 and perhaps ultimately found. But that didn't happen, and it didn't
 happen because the Prototype community and leadership didn't make it
 happen (perhaps corporate sponsorship wasn't desirable; fair 'nuff)
 and because luck didn't go Prototype's way. (And don't think luck
 isn't a big factor here.)

 I have nothing but respect and admiration for Andrew and everyone else
 who has made Prototype what it is. And there's absolutely no reason
 not to use it on your websites if you test with your target browsers
 and it does what

objects and without the When properties works, Im mean if you do
something like
  [
{Aspirante_id:37,
  AspirantesComentarios_id: 6,
  Comentario:asdfadsf,
  Who:nahum
},
{Aspirante_id:38,
  AspirantesComentarios_id: 7,
  Comentario:another string,
  Who:you
}
  ]



Look I removed the when property and works you can see the images of
the debugger here[ http://ibp.mx/lnk/attch/debug.jpg ]. so I thinks is
something more about the date type or format, and been work before
with this type but I dont't know why is saying syntax error thanks
for the answer Luke and sorry for the format.

[Proto-Scripty] Prototype 1.7 EvalJSON Error Sintax on Date Eval

2011-01-06 Thread ncubica
Hi I'm working with the evalJSON method many time before but some
reason now is sending me a Error Sintax when I try it to use with
any Date format.

the json string which I'm receiving in the responseJSON is the follow.

[{Aspirante_id:37,AspirantesComentarios_id:
6,Comentario:asdfadsf,Who:nahum,When:new
Date(1294268679000)}]

I'm doing something like [{Aspirante_id:
37,AspirantesComentarios_id:
6,Comentario:asdfadsf,Who:nahum,When:new
Date(1294268679000)}].evalJSON(); and I getting Error sintax but If
I remove the When Value with the date the evalJSON works without any
problem does any know why is this,  do I'm doing something wrong, Im
working this with Newtosoft and C#.

Code C# is a webmethod
var commentsFound = from comment in
aspirantescomentario.All() where comment.Aspirante_id  ==
Convert.ToInt32(id) orderby comment.When descending select new
{ comment.Aspirante_id, comment.AspirantesComentarios_id,
comment.Comentario, comment.Who, comment.When };
var js = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(commentsFound,new
JavaScriptDateTimeConverter());
Context.Response.Output.Write(js);
Context.Response.End();
return string.Empty;

   function setSelect(selID, strValue) {

   Live example:http://jsbin.com/aboyo

   Perhaps off-topic, but I wouldn't have all of those onclicks if you
   can avoid it:
  http://jsbin.com/aboyo/2

   You can condense that a bit:
  http://jsbin.com/aboyo/3

[Proto-Scripty] Re: window.open on ajax response

2010-07-10 Thread ncubica
I guess one easy option is to call a outside function like

   new Ajax.Request('someURL', {
  onSuccess: function(response) {
var success = response.responseText;
success == true ? openPopup(http://google.com;) :
openPopup(http://yahoo.com;);
  }
});

function openPopup(site){
window.open(site);
}

mmm but what I don't know is if the browser is going to keep blocking
the new window... the only difference with this is the scope.

but that should be work...

 Hi,

 I have hyperlink. When a user clicks on it, i would make a ajax call

 for example:
        new Ajax.Request('someURL', {

             var success = response.responseText;
             success == true ? window.open(http://google.com;) :

 But problem is the window.open is called as part of onSuccess
 callback. So the browser popup blocker blocks the call.

 How can I get around this problem and want the popup to open.

 sharing all CSS properties, without having to sequentially id each
 div, and have X amount of observes; one for each specific div.

 So the basic JS would be something like:

 $$('.className'),observe('mouseover',
 funcToCall(way_to_reference_div) );

 with a bunch of div's coded in html like:

 div class=className/div
 div class=className/div
 div class=className/div

 i understand if i have to add an id to each specific div, but i want a
 way to reference the id from a single observe statement that works for
 all div's sharing that class.

Yes thanks David, I just had read about this, and found this one for
Prototype http://www.dandean.com/jsonp-for-prototypejs/ and the js
file is in http://www.dandean.com/jsonp-for-prototypejs/src/jsonp.js
this let you make cross domain calls, (at least is what he is saying)
Im going to try in a few seconds.

Jquery have JSONP include it into there core options, do you know if
exist any intent to have it in prototype core'???.

this is the example in jquery.
$.getJSON('ajax/test.json', function(data) {
  $('.result').html('p' + data.foo + '/p'
+ 'p' + data.baz[1] + '/p');
});

thanks long live to prototype =)

 Hi,

 If you really want to watch each individual `li` directly, then what
 you have seems perfectly straightforward. But in that situation,
 barring a really good reason to do it that way, I wouldn't use a
 handler on each `li`; I'd listen for clicks on the elementToUpdate (or
 the `ul` within it) instead with just a single handler:

     $(elementToUpdate).observe(click, function(event) {
         var li;

         // Find out which `li` was clicked:
         li = event.findElement(li);
         if (li) {
             // Do something with the `li`
         }
     });

 Prototype 1.7 has a new feature to simplify that a bit:

     $(elementToUpdate).on(click, li, function(event, li) {
         // Do something with the `li`;  note it's given as the second
         // argument to the function
     });

 ...where behind the scenes, Prototype is basically doing what I did
 above. You'll want the first version if you're still using 1.6 (and
 since 1.7 is still at RC1, I expect you probably are).
