Hi, Exceptions in the Ajax callbacks are caught by Prototype and routed to your onException handler, if you have one. Details in the docs[1]. This is specific to the Ajax callbacks, not event handlers generally. [1] http://prototypejs.org/api/ajax/options HTH, -- T.J. Crowder tj / crowder

Hi Mikey, There was no Content-Type header. I imagine our server doesn't know what to append for *.properties files. That makes sense. I'll have a look at the Tomcat docs and see if I can figure that out. Slightly OT of me, but I might be able to point you in the right direction if you

[Proto-Scripty] Event stopped when its source element is removed

Hi all ! I wonder if there's a way to forward an event when its 'source element' (target ?) is removed. In my use, I have two inputs. I'd like to DOM-remove one of them when it 'blurs'. Till now, when I click elsewhere in the page, no problem. Now I'd like to switch fields with tab or click by

Hi, My guess is the problem lies in your code that calls exFetch (or at least code elsewhere), since that quoted code not only doesn't call the handler right away, it won't call it _at all_. This anonymous function: function (transport) { window[callBack] } ...doesn't call the handler.
