[Proto-Scripty] Re: Focused field
That's true, and yes that CSS selector should include buttons.
If you're building your DOM dynamically, you may want to create a form
element factory. Then this can automatically add the focus observer each
time you create a form element.
var focused;
function onElementFocus(event)
{
focused = event.element();
}
function createFormElement(type, attributes)
{
return new Element(type, attributes).observe('focus', onElementFocus);
}
// create a form element
var button = createElement('button', {name: 'myButton'}).update('Click
me!');
$(document.body).insert(button);

[Proto-Scripty] Re: select only text (i.e. textnodes, probably) using $$
I notice you have an uppercase letter in your $$ selector. I don't
know, but this could cause you some problems if you are not using
Firefox. Please see the discussion called 'cross browser $$ selector
problems'. You should not need to do this, but just for a test, try
making all id's and class names completely lowercase and see if that
helps. It is only a workaround, but if that works for you it would be
evidence of a cross-browser issue in prototype.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Scriptacuous: autocomplete How do I update my database in PHP after the string is found
Thanks. Updating into the database is working now! But when I select
one result from the list of results using the arrow keys the incorrect
selection is updated in the database.
If I don't use the arrow keys and just select the first result then
the correct result is in the database. How do I make sure the result
the user selects is put into the database? It seems to give me the
first result in the list by default.
Thanks!

You could check if the firstChild of the element in question is a textNode.
i.e.:
var c = el.firstChild;
if(c.nodeType == 3){ //text node
el.update(...);

[Proto-Scripty] Re: cross browser $$ selector problems
I was trying to scale down the example to the essence of the issue. Of
course, $('Contents') should be interchangeable with $$('#Contents'),
except that is the bug - it doesn't work on Safari or IE. In the real
world, I might want the selector to be more like $$('table#tblTMRoster
tbody tr td.countChecked'+i) - while there may be many tables with
such cells, I only want one table's worth. Another bug for another day
is this: even if there is only one table in the page, $$('tbody tr
td.countChecked'+i) returns not only the td's in the tbody, but also
the ones in the tfoot, and the only workaround I could come up with
was to prepend the table id on the selector to make it work.
Finally, while one assumes id's ought to be unique, $$('#contents')
returns an array of all elements with any case-variations like
contents, Contents, conTents, whatever. At least that bug is on
Safari, however not in Firefox nor IE. So again, if there is any way
to make Prototype.js wrap up these browser inconsistencies, it would
be a boon for the programmer.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: cross browser $$ selector problems
Yes, you have captured the essence of the issue - unexpectedly
inconsistent results across browsers, with no apparent workaround
except to make all id's and all class names lower case. On my tests
using Windows XP Pro SP3, the browser versions were Firefox 3.0.4, IE
6.0.2900, and Safari 3.2. On the Mac OS X 10.5.4, I only have Safari
3.1.2, and it gives the same results as the Windows version.
Not sure why you think we can ignore the scenario where the case of
the ID is different: since case is significant, Safari and IE should
not find it, yet they do. Only Firefox properly finds no match.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Scriptacuous: autocomplete How do I update my database in PHP after the string is found
If you're asking about the PHP part, all you need is an ID field in your
database table:
table fields:
ID
UNIQUE_CUST_ID
Judging by your code, UNIQUE_CUST_ID is probably text, something you can
enter in a user form. I'd change it to something meaningful, like
'ARTISTNAME'. And ID would be just a number assigned by the database. It
should be defined 'auto_increment' so that it is automatically assigned
whenever you add a new entry, and is guaranteed to always be unique.
So, you change:
$sql = "SELECT ARTISTNAME FROM tablename WHERE ARTISTNAME LIKE '%" .
$_POST['search'] . "%'";
To: "SELECT ID, ARTISTNAME..."
Then using your code below, you get
$data["ID"] has the ID number in it,
$data["ARTISTNAME"] has the name.
Then the crux of the matter:
You do an UPDATE:
$sql = UPDATE tablename set ARTISTNAME='your new value' WHERE ID=$data["ID"]
This is two database queries. You can do it in one, but I'd get this going
first. To do it in one, you use 'ON DUPLICATE ENTRY..." and some more

[Proto-Scripty] Scriptacuous: autocomplete How do I update my database in PHP after the string is found
Hi, I'm trying to update my database with the string that is selected
by the user but am not sure how to do so? Thank you.
Here is my call in html.
//
function getSelectedId(text, li) {
$('artist_id').value=li.id;
}
The PHP code from wiseguys
$sql = "SELECT UNIQUE_CUST_ID FROM MyDB WHERE UNIQUE_CUST_ID

A prototype way might go something like this (untested):

focused = event.element();

[Proto-Scripty] Re: cross browser $$ selector problems
Hi Jay,
Thanks for this. We can ignore the results for when the case of the
ID you're requesting is different from the case of the ID on the
table, since case is significant in IDs[1] -- not that I'm surprised
to see that IE is, um, different there.
So to my mind, that leaves us with this anomalous result: If you have
an element with an ID containing at least one upper-case character,
the ID is not matched by selectors such as $$('#MyID') or $$
('table#MyID'). You should be getting back an array with one element;
you're getting back no elements. The selector works if the ID is in
all lower-case (I checked). Naturally, you can get around this using $
(), but that's not necessarily the point. :-)
Separately, a second result I noticed looking at the above: Class
selectors don't work on Safari if the class has an upper-case
character in it. Your element with the class "De" doesn't get matched
by $$('td.De'), but it does if I change the class and selector to both
be all lower-case.
Does that capture it?
Thanks again,

[Proto-Scripty] Re: How to override / hack Element.update function?
I had this kind of problem some time ago..
I had a table that was generated by javascript showing values that
were added to the database from all users. So when the administrator
needed to get the full table it took years to load.
This kind of thing is generally only text data, with no "script" tags
that needed to be evaluated (this consumes a lot if time on
Prototype.Element.update method).
Check if you can change some if your update codes to innerHTML's,
probably lots of them will don't need to be evaluated ass javascript
scripts.
In the case you are adding Object Elements try element.wrap
('span').innerHTML this still intends to be faster than update()
(again for not evaluating script tags).

I don't know if i really understood the problem here...
But onComplete gets a XMLHttpRequest object. that has your server

Passing val as a parameter is a fully new Object as a value of
parameter. This is not allowed...

[Proto-Scripty] Re: InPlaceEditor Is there a way to control the sending?
You can do it if you want to. But one of the great things of inPlaceEditor is to update database on live and to have the updated feedback. If tou change this yuu will have to create a way to tell the users wich fields were updated and wich were not. (And depending on how many fields he had edited he will not remember what he wrote on that...). The total calls to your server should not worry you, because nowadays it is better to have lots of small connections than have one single connection doing lots of stuff. Try to think like this: If your server can attend 20 people at same time, and you have 200 people using it.If half of them save a huge thing almost in the same time, the last one will wait lots of time to get a answer, but if all of them start to make little and fast changes all time, none of them will wait to much. If you are experiencing server problems, try to use (if you are not) a persistent connection with the bank. This can down load you server a lot.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: cross browser $$ selector problems
$$() with # does not return anything more in the array than one element
because id's should be unique ... its in the docs
http://www.prototypejs.org/api/utility/dollar-dollar
$$('#contents');
// -> same as $('contents'), only it returns an array anyway (even though
IDs must be unique within a document).
you will be better off using $('abc') to gather your results as its cross
browser and works as expected on all platforms supportedRegards

[Proto-Scripty] cross browser $$ selector problems
Hi All,
I seem to be painted into a corner with use of $$ with respect to case
sensitivity of the id attribute of html elements. I get completely
opposite results between Firefox, Safari, and IE. All three work
differently. With an id such as "aBc", Firefox can only find it with $$
('#aBc') and Safari can find it only with $$('#abc'). IE finds both,
i.e. not at all case sensitive. I have a test case below - just run on
different browsers, and you will see different results.
Thanks,
--Jay

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Focused field
Tricky stuff, focus doesn't bubble so you can't watch it up top and flag the target like you could with click... I'd collect all elements that support the focus event, watch for it and manage the reference of lastFocused to determine what the user is currently focused on.

I believe Element#insert() expects an object as its parameter, like this:
$('tableid').down('tbody').insert({top: tr});

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Nulling or stopping Dynamic Variables
As an added bonus totally unforseen by me, when removing the element that
the object was initialized in - it seems to remove the object too ...
i.e the Object was created in an ajax callback in an element .. once i
applied $('div').remove(); to the element that created it then it seems to
remove it !!!
Bonus :D

Subject: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Nulling or stopping Dynamic Variables
Hi Alex,
You can do this pretty easily with properties of an object. The cool
thing about properties of objects in JavaScript (well, *one* of the
cool things) is that you can reference them both literally using
dotted notation and via a string using bracket notation.
Consequently, these snippets are all functionally identical;
1) x = myobject.myproperty;
2) x = myobject['myproperty'];
3) x = myobject[s]; // (assuming 's' is a variable containing the
string "myproperty")
4) x = myobject['my' + s]; // (assuming 's' contains the string
"property")
You get the idea.
So somewhere appropriate (if it has to be global, so be it, but if you
can avoid that...), create an object that will contain these:
* * * *
var pebag = {};
* * * *
Then make your references properties on that object:
* * * *
pebag.checkRecord_123423414 = new PeriodicalExecuter(function() {
testingRecord('123423414');
},7);
* * * *
Then when you want to get rid of them:
* * * *
delete pebag['checkRecord_' + s];
* * * *
...where 's' is a variable containing the string '123423414'.
If you prefer not using something like 'pebag', you could use the
window object (and many do), but FWIW I'd recommend using something
specially for the purpose; the namespace of the window object tends to
get crowded, not least because of the Horror of Implicit Globals.[1]

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Draggable element with position:fixed is fighting with the scroll bar
Seems that setting ghosting:false (which I think is the deafualt
anyway) solved the problem.

Is there a reason you wish to use `update` over just assigning to
`innerHTML` directly? I would suggest to go with the latter one, but
if you must:
Element.addMethods({
update: function(){ ... }
});
P.S. Also, don't forget that Element#update (among others) is
redefined for IE later during initialization time.

[Proto-Scripty] Nulling or stopping Dynamic Variables
Mornign Guys/Girls
I am having some trouble nulling out or stopping some dynamic
variables i have created ...
I have built a dynamic window system which does alot of things, one is
checking a database to ensure the most up to date information is in
input boxes ... Now to check this i create a dynamic variable when the
contents is loaded via an ajax request...
[code]
checkRecord_ = new PeriodicalExecuter(function()
{
testingRecord('');
},7);
[/code]
in this rand is just a unix epoch on when the page was created and is
referenced throughout the whole entire page and all its elements ...
for those that dont know php here is a simpler version of the code
[code]
checkRecord_123423414 = new PeriodicalExecuter(function() {
testingRecord('123423414');
},7);
[/code]
in the DOM there is now a variable called
"checkRecord_123423414" (please bear in mind this is dynamic so i cant
just do checkRecord_123423414=null; when i want to null it or stop the
object as the ending string is allways different dependant on what
page you are on ...
Now the problem i get is when closing the windows in the system (which
are just div containers) i have to stop observing alot of stuff ...
this is done quite easily with stopObserving();
But i need to stop the PeriodicalExecutor from continuing once the
window is closed ...
i have tried to use "checkRecord_+e.stop();" (`e` is the random string
passed to it) but it gives me a syntax error
i have tried to use "checkRecord_+e=null;" but the interpretor does
not recognise the dynamic variable . is there a way i can assign
the variable to something so it inherits all of the things i need to
stop in it ..
Something like (PSUEDO CODE)
[psuedo code]
var blah='checkRecord_'+e;
blah=null;
[/psuedo code]
Will this inherit the "new PeriodicalExecutor" stuff in it so i can
null the object and stop it listening ?
It allready half works just by closing the window, but if you close it
while its doing a request (testingRecord();)
it moans about things being null (as they are removed from the dom
prior to the object being nulled out !!!
Sorry if this makes no sense at all !! if anything needs clarifying
please ask
Regards
Alex

[Proto-Scripty] How to override / hack Element.update function?
Hi,
I want to make a huge table using Prototype. my script has 2900 calls
to Element.update. These calls lasts 4 seconds, which is a lot. This
is mainly taken up by the regular expressions in the function, to
identify scripts inside the body I want to insert in the node. By
just removing these script-related code out of the update-function, I
have a huge performance boost.
I don't want to customize my local prototype.js file, but want to
override the function. I tried something like this:
Element.Methods.update = function(element, content) {
element = $(element);
if (content && content.toElement) content = content.toElement();
if (Object.isElement(content)) return element.update().insert
(content);
content = Object.toHTML(content);
element.innerHTML = content;
//element.innerHTML = content.stripScripts();
//content.evalScripts.bind(content).defer();
return element;
};
This didn't change my method.
Adding a new method
Element.Methods.simpleUpdate = function(element, content) {
...
or
Object.extend(Element, {
simpleUpdate: function(element, content) {
...
doesn't work either.
How can I get it work, or is there an alternative in which I don't
have to use the update-function, besides updating it by changing the
innerHTML property myself.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Is there a way to produce something similar to Google Calendar's Grid
Hi, > Is there a way to produce a grid whereby clicking the anywhere on the > grid will result in an action that I would like to perform > specifically to that point? > ... > something that can behave like this (maybe a white button) > ... Yes, that's not a problem, you can use divs or spans, since you get "click" events on all elements, not just buttons. Here's a quick example: http://pastie.org/318600 That uses: * The Prototype dom:loaded event[1] to trigger page initialization * Element#observe[2] to watch the div containing the calendar for clicks on it or its descendants * Event#findElement[3] to find the element that was actually clicked. Event#findElement accepts a CSS selector and finds the first matching element starting from the element that was actually clicked and then looking up through its ancestors. Very handy for event delegation, which is what we're doing here to avoid having to watch each day individually. * Event#pointerX[4] and Event#pointerY to find out where the mouse was clicked [1] http://prototypejs.org/api/document/observe [2] http://prototypejs.org/api/element/observe [3] http://prototypejs.org/api/event/findElement [4] http://prototypejs.org/api/event/pointerX HTH, -- T.J.

[Proto-Scripty] InPlaceEditor Is there a way to control the sending?
Hi everyone, I have played around the InPlaceEditor for a while now and I notice that upon completion of the text field, the InPlaceEditor immediately makes a call the url supplied by the user. I think this is kind of inefficient. Is there a way such that upon complete, I can write a function that can push the value of the text into a queue and hence reduce the total number of calls to my server? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.

[Proto-Scripty] Draggable element with position:fixed is fighting with the scroll bar
Hi,
I have an draggable element with a css position attribute that has a
value of 'fixed.' I'm calling Position.cumulativeOffset($
('taskbar')); via the onEnd option so the element is in the right
place when I go to drag it again.
Everything is working well, except when the page scrolls in any
direction. When the page scrolls it seems that the position attribute
of the element changes with the scrolling (understandably), but the
problem is that the original position before the page scrolls is where
the element (the ghost) appears when I attempt to drag it again. So
the ghosting effect starts where the element was prior to the page
scroll. The element actually moves to where I move the cursor but it's
not in sync...
Any way to fix this? It only needs to work in Firefox.
Thanks!
Rich

[Proto-Scripty] Is there a way to produce something similar to Google Calendar's Grid
Hi everyone Is there a way to produce a grid whereby clicking the anywhere on the grid will result in an action that I would like to perform specifically to that point? I know I sound confusing but I am actually looking for something similar to google's calendar. Is there something out there that is similar - when you click on a particular box, a dialog pops up and ask you what the event details are etc etc. Is there a way to make an entire area populated with a unit of something that can behave like this (maybe a white button) and then generating tons of these to cover an entire area? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.

[Proto-Scripty] The Hop Effect
Prototype JavaScript framework, version 1.6.0.3 scriptaculous.js v1.8.1 I am currently running a script that has a menu that scrolls down as you scroll down. You can see it here http://www.law.indiana.edu/lawlibrary/research/guides/european/index_hop.shtml . But you can also a notice that when the scrolling stops theres a "hop" or a flash or redraw happening making it not seem as a smooth as it should. Is there a remedy for this or is there code in here that should not be here?
