I've implemented "submit" and "change" events bubbling in this Prototype 1.7 plugin: http://gist.github.com/382731
Stick it in your projects, give it a whirl! *Warning:* it doesn't work with the `observe` method, you have to use `on`. Example: document.on("submit", function(e) { e.findElement().findFirstElement().setValue("You're a kitty!") e.preventDefault() }) It uses Kangax's feature detection to see whether the events in question are supported on the "DIV" element (that is, if they bubble or not). Then I use the "focusin" event to discover FORM, INPUT, SELECT and TEXTAREA, then I stick handlers on them to observe real events and fire the "emulated:submit" or "emulated:change" custom events which bubble. Finally, I monkeypatch Event.Handler#initialize to magically change attempts to observe the bubbling *native* event to observing the *emulated* event. *Known bug:* if the user observes the real "submit" event directly on a form element and calls `stopPropagation()` in this handler, the "emulated:submit" event will still fire and will still bubble up. This is because I don't know how to detect whether or not stopPropagation was called, and even if I could, the order in which "submit" handlers will fire at runtime is probably not guaranteed, making this problem even more complex. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype: Core" group.
