[Proto-Scripty] Re: Rerouting Events
Hi,
I think that every body has understand, but there is no way to do $
('elem').click() on FF.
This work on IE, and simulate a real click on the element, but it's
not (I don't think !) in standard.
And thanks, because I did not know it works in Safari.
so you should have to use a tricks to use it.
If you like such a function, try to create your own, and extend the
element !

You can try with custom events -http://www.prototypejs.org/api/element/fire

or use this hack witch jdalton wrote here :http://pastie.org/255119
Element.addMethods({
fire: Event.fire.wrap(function(proceed, element, eventName, memo)
{
element = $(element);
var w, event, eventID;
$w(eventName)._each(function(name) {
// use original fire if it's a custom:event
if (name.include(':'))
return proceed(element, name, memo);
// handle native events
eventID = (element._prototypeEventID || [null])[0];
if (!eventID || !(w = Event.cache[eventID][name])) return
false;
// poor man's event object
event = Event.extend({ });
event.eventName = name;
event.memo = memo || { };
// execute event wrappers
w._each(function(wrapper) { wrapper(event) });
});
return element;
})
});
p.s. This $(ement).fire('click') must be in the core I think, but
don't have enough free time lately to fire a ticket

That's because it's invalid HTML. You can't put divs inside select
elements. I'm pretty sure only option and optgroup are allowed, but
in any case I'm certain div isn't. You can use the W3C Markup
Validator[1] to keep your HTML valid.
[1]http://validator.w3.org
With your updated example of the select box within the div and
replaced via an Ajax.Updater: Using innerHTML to create form elements
doesn't work reliably, and under the covers Ajax.Updater uses
Element#update, which uses innerHTML. Separate from your specific
problem of the event handler not being called (that could be easily
solved using Event#observe), you'll run into issues with some browsers
not recognizing the replaced select box at all. You pretty much have
to add form elements using DOM methods (appendChild and the like).
I take it the goal is to change the options available within the
select box when the value changes? (OT: Doesn't that make for a
jittery user experience?) Rather than using HTML, I think you're
better off manipulating the options array of the select box directly.
It's been years since I did that, so I'm sure what I used to do is old-
fashioned -- I'll leave it to you to Google changing the options, or
for someone who's done it more recently to chime in.
So, not a complete answer, but hopefully it's useful to know what's
going wrong...

I could not get this to work, but, to be honest; I could have
something else wrong, because I am not certain how this new approach

understand, or I am not following the logic.. Are we still using

[Proto-Scripty] Aborting an ajax call
I've built a chess game using Prototype's ajax wrappers. Sometimes, a server simply doesn't respond to a request that a user has made. You know how that works. You click on a link to a page and you don't get a response. You hit the stop button, click on the link again, and the pag shows up no problem. The problem is that every once and a while (maybe once every couple of games) a user will attempt to make a move, but their request will never make it to the server. They can just refresh the page in those intances, but that's yucky. I'd prefer the code to abort the request and make a new one if a response hasn't been received from the server within 3 seconds or so. The XMLHTTPRequest object has an abort method. It doesn't appear that the ajax object from Prototype has this method. How do I go about aborting a request if no response is received within a certain time frame? Thanks in advance.

You can try with custom events

or use this hack witch jdalton wrote here :http://pastie.org/255119
Element.addMethods({
fire: Event.fire.wrap(function(proceed, element, eventName, memo)
{
element = $(element);
var w, event, eventID;
$w(eventName)._each(function(name) {
// use original fire if it's a custom:event
if (name.include(':'))
return proceed(element, name, memo);

eventID = (element._prototypeEventID || [null])[0];
if (!eventID || !(w = Event.cache[eventID][name])) return
false;
// poor man's event object
event = Event.extend({ });
event.eventName = name;
event.memo = memo || { };
// execute event wrappers
w._each(function(wrapper) { wrapper(event) });
});
return element;

});
p.s. This $(ement).fire('click') must be in the core I think, but
don't have enough free time lately to fire a ticket

[Proto-Scripty] Re: grabbing form values from multiple pages.
Here's a local example that works in Firefox. http://pastie.org/379612 Save those three files somewhere and try it out. Here's an example that works with a server call (not tested): http://pastie.org/379637 I don't believe this will work in IE, you can't update the inner bits of a select and have it work like a form element afterward. For that, you will need to use the new Option(text,value) syntax inside a loop.

[Proto-Scripty] new Element(label), problem with 'for' attribute
IE seems to barf when setting the for attribute of a label with the
element constructor:
$(element).insert(new Element(label, { id:'something', for:'check1',
className:'FBRadioLabelLeft' }))
Should result in:
label for=check1 id=something/label
It seems IE thinks it's starting a for-loop or something.
Is there a work-around for this?

[Proto-Scripty] validation for alphanumeric field/sequence
Hi - I want to use this validation for an alphanumeric field.
return Validation.get('IsEmpty').test(v) || !/\W/.test(v)
But I only want the field to be valid if the sequence is V3 or
B40009 or J50008 (for example). It will be valid only for a few letter/
number sequences. I can't really wrap my mind around the regular
expressions right now. What would the syntax be just to stub in a few
sequences that would validate?
Thanks for all your help.

I deliberately made the server side a sketch. I use a framework here that lets me write something that terse and get a result.

On Feb 4, 10:41 am, Richie M i...@linuxbox.co.uk wrote:
Hi,
I have a form with three drop down select boxes in it. I'd like the
second box to populate when an option is selected in the first, and
for the third to populate when an option is selected from the second.
In the first select box, I use onchange to call a php script:
select id='box1' onchange=ajaxUpdater('ajax_regions', '/ajax/
populate.php?show=monthid=' + getsel('box1')
Apart from the invalid HTML (pointed out by TJ), it is very unwise to
use an onchange handler with a select element if there is any chance
the form will be used in IE. If a user tries to navigate the options
using the cursor keys in IE, a change event will fire each time the
key is pressed and changes the selected option - I don't think that is
what you want.
I don't know what the getsel function does, however I suspect you are
using the ID attribute inappropriately. Option elements have a value
attribute[1] that is supposed to be used to send data to the server,
select elements have a DOM value property that is determined from the
selected option, so why not use:
select onblur=ajaxUpdater(... + this.value);
option value=value 0value 0
option value=value 1value 1
option value=value 2value 2
/select
Or use an explicit update the form button.
1. The text attribute can be used to, however due to IE's non-
compliance with the W3C standard relating to use of text as the option
value, it is easier to explicitly use the value attribute.

[Proto-Scripty] Modifier Keys
Forgive me if this is a dumb question and this is some simple property in script.aculo.us: I'm wondering if there is a way on a droppable to detect if the shift key is down when the object is dropped. I know that there is a property for shift key off of event, but I've only seen code examples with this tied to a mouse click. What I really want is to determine this at the moment its dropped as this would allow the user any time in the drag on whether or not to use the shift modifier. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Prototype script.aculo.us group.

You have to call:
newArray.inject($H(),function(h,i){
h.set(i[0],i[1])

I wasn't suggesting fixing it in a v1.x release, as APIs shouldn't be
changed in minor releases. Though it is definitely something to keep
in mind for Prototype v2.0.

Hi Brad,
The contract states that Enumerable#reject Returns all the elements
for which the iterator returned false.
Here's the opening line of the Enumerable#reject docs:
reject(iterator[, context]) - Array
Similarly, findAll (the one we started with, via its alias filter):
findAll(iterator[, context]) - Array
That's not an assumption, that's a documented return value. Changing
these to return a Hash if the original is a Hash breaks the contract
and breaks compatibility with previous releases. Whereas getting the
result you want is trivial:
result = $H(originalHash.reject(...));
It's entirely intuitive that...
I'm not talking intuitive vs. non-intuitive (it's far too subjective),
I'm talking the current documented (and implemented!) behavior.
Remember that Enumerable is a contract, and code dealing with an
Enumerable may not happen to know that it's dealing with a Hashy kind
of Enumerable. :-)
I do agree -- not that it matters! ;-) -- that for (say) 2.0, an
argument can be made for changing Enumerable to say that for these
kinds of methods, it returns an Enumerable (not an Array), and that
concrete classes should (where appropriate) return the same type as
the original. But (due respect to kangax) to me that's not a bug,
that's a request for API enhancement, and not the kind of thing to do
in a dot release or by making Hash a special case.
FWIW,

Otherwise Hash#reject() is practically useless.
The only part of the documentation that is wrong is the assumption
that it will always return an Array. Perhaps that was an oversight
when Hash was left out as a subclass of Enumerable in the
documentation.
Ruby fixed their documentation:
Hash#reject:http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Hash.html#M002901

Not as far as I'm concerned it isn't. It returns what its documented
contract says it returns. The only error IMHO is in the
interpretation that it would do something other than what the
documentation says it will do. You're not suggesting it should break
the Enumerable contract, are you?

TJ, thanks for correcting the docs. I hadn't noticed that error

Are you suggesting that there no intersection of Prototype and Ruby
communities? I only know of Prototype because of Ruby on Rails.
Let's take Hash#reject() as an example. Let's say I'm moving server-
side Ruby code to my Prototype-enhanced client-side.
Ruby code:
{ a = 100, b = 200, c = 300 }.reject {|key, value| key ==
b }
= {a=100, c=300}
Translated to Javascript:
$H({ a: 100, b: 200, c: 300 }).reject(function(i) { return
i.key
== b })
= [[a, 100], [c, 300]]
Prototype returns an array? What good is an array if I started with
a
hash? It is intuitive that a reject() method returns a subset of the
original data structure and not convert it to an entirely different
one.
Didn't we establish that this is a bug? ; )
