Supposing you have the aforementioned element stored in the - elm -

var classNamesRegex = new RegExp('\\b(' + classesArr.join('|') + ')\\b'); //

Please don't use boundaries to separate class values. I wonder who
came up with this silly idea and why it keeps circulating around.
/\bfoo\b/ matches values such as foo-bar which is, of course, wrong.
Hm, I didn't know that. Actually I have never used /b myself, I didn't even

Yes, tools are tools - and one should use the one that fits the task at

how to use a hammer, everything starts looking like a nail... Ah well...
I'm not looking for arguments _not_ to use jQuery, but the current
situation is that it is getting increasingly harder to convince co-workers
that prototype is a valid choice. jQuery seem to have many more followers
along with a more united community, whereas the prototype api pages are
relatively short in larger examples. There is the unofficial wiki you set
up which tries to help in several areas, which it does - and no, I haven't
found time to contribute myself (yet.. argh...). Plugins/tools/whatever is
found on scripteka and finally we have the scriptaculous website as well. I
know that the prototype team now focuses on more scheduled releases, better
documentation and the community as a general - which is good. I really hope
it will help the ecosystem around prototype evolve. Im just looking for all
you clever guys comments on what the differences between prototype and
jQuery are, and how this could help me persuade others that just because MS
decides to support a tool, doesnt mean that the others should be

Hi,
Tools are tools, use the one that does what you need and that you find
comfortable.
One thing I don't like about jQuery is all of the (in effect) function
overloading. I don't have a problem with overloaded functions
provided they do essentially the same thing (in Java, for instance,
it's how you do optional parameters). But for example, the jQuery
function (usually aka $) is just way too overloaded. If you see:
$(x);
...or
jQuery(x);
...in someone's code, you have to look very carefully at 'x' to know
what that's going to do. It might
1. Extend a raw element
or maybe
2. Search for elements matching a CSS selector
or it could
3. Register a function to be called when the DOM is ready
but don't forget that instead it might
4. Create DOM elements from an HTML string.
Yikes. That's asking for maintenance problems IMHO, even if you don't
have junior staff -- and especially if you do.
In a similar vein, I don't like the fact that a number of jQuery's
functions are dual-mode: They do one thing if you pass in a
parameter, something else if you don't. If you write:
x = $('#frog').html('ribbit');
...you're setting the inner content of the 'frog' element to the text
'ribbit'. But if you write:
x = $('#frog').html();
...you're *retrieving* the content of 'frog'. So the html() function
has to check arguments.length every time you call it (except it
doesn't, see note about subtle bugs below) to figure out whether it's
a set or get operation, even though you've ALREADY done that
differentiation in your code. Now, I know branch-on-test is very fast
these days, but I still don't see any excuse for requiring the library
to do that runtime check on every call. Just use different names,
f'chrissake. :-) And there's that maintenance aspect again -- it's
unusual for functions to change meaning in that way. Granted, this
isn't *totally* dissimilar to using a property (where what happens
depends on whether it's on the left- or right-hand side of the
assignment operator), but it's different enough to cause hassles.
Oh! And quick: What does 'x' refer to in the above two statements?
You guessed it, it depends on whether you passed a parameter into html
() or not. If you did, html() returns a jQuery object (for chaining
purposes); if you didn't, it returns a string (the content of the
element). Say what?
These dual-mode functions make some bugs in your code even more subtle
than they need to be. Consider:
function buggyFunction(count) {
var display;
if (count minThreshold) {
display = 'Need more thingies';
} else if (count maxThreshold) {
display = 'Too many thingies!';
}
$('#levelmessage').html(display);
}
The author of the function messed up and forgot to set 'display' to
anything if minThreshold = count = maxThreshold (they probably
wanted ''), and so 'display' is undefined when passed into html() in
that case. Now, does that show the text 'undefined'? No. It doesn't

Hi George,
(It's a JavaScript rather than Prototype/script.aculo.us question,
yes.)
This object literal / JSON data:
[{bookingref:'A6D98FGR', canceled:0}]
...defines an array with a single element, which is an object instance
with two properties: bookingref (value 'A6D98FGR') and canceled
(value 0).
You can get the values just by referring to the properties of the
object, so:
var x = RS[0].bookingref;
alert(x); // Alerts 'A6D98FGR'
JavaScript allows you to use property names both literally with dot
notation (as above), and _also_ via string names using bracket
notation; we could write the above like this instead:
var x = RS[0]['bookingref'];
alert(x); // Alerts 'A6D98FGR'
Note the quotes, the square brackets, and the absense of the dot.
If you don't know the names of the properties in advance, you can use
the for..in loop to iterate over the names of the object's properties:
var name;
for (name in RS[0]) {
alert(name + '=' + RS[0][name]);
}
In the loop, the variable 'name' is set on each iteration to the name
of a property on the object, as a string. This is powerful when
combined with bracket notation. On the object defined in your JSON
above, that will show bookingref=A6D98FGR and canceled=0; the
order is not defined and almost certainly will vary from
implementation to implementation.
Note that for..in is for iterating over the properties of an object,
*not* the elements of an array. Many JavaScript programmers think
it's for the latter, and they get into trouble as a result because
Prototype adds some properties to arrays that they're not expecting to
see. Details:
http://proto-scripty.wikidot.com/prototype:tip-looping-through-arrays
But again, it's totally fine for looping through the properties on an
object, like your RS[0].

I'd like to be able to do something like

I hope that makes sense.

Don't know if it's the right thing to do though.
Why would you want to eval that string?
Matt, could you elaborate a bit more?
$$('#container_'+boxID+' span');
actually looks to be fine. What are you getting with it and what are
you expecting?

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Element.update()
Well, first of all, try quoting your hash keys like this:
list.each(function(item){
var newOption = new Element('option',
{'innerHTML':item.nm,'value':item.id});
selectList.insert({bottom:newOption});
});
If it still doesn't work, try using firebug's[1] console and debug to see
any exception the script might be throwing.

HELP! This is the first time I have my script working for IE but not
for Firefox.
I have a 3 drop downs. The first dropdown dictates what will be shown
on the second. And second drop down dictates the third. I use
Ajax.Request() to get the drop down values from database. onSuccess, I
call the function below:
function updateList2(list){
var selectList = $('list2');
selectList.update();
var newOption = new Element('option',{innerHTML:'-- Select One
--',value:''});
selectList.insert({bottom:newOption});
if (list){
list.each(function(item){
var newOption = new Element('option',
{innerHTML:item.nm,value:item.id});
selectList.insert({bottom:newOption});
});
}
}
Works fine in IE, but when Firefox will not insert the new options
into the list!
Thanks

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Simple, unobtrusive way to open all links marked external
What's the error that the script's throwing?
Also, are the elements in the result enum already extended[1]? If not,
switch element.observ to $(element).observe.

Hi guys,
I'm learning the prototype library after coming from jQuery, and I'm
trying to write a simple snippet that opens external links in a new
window.
This doesn't seem to work in Firefox, or Safari, and I'm not sure what
I'm doing wrong here,
I'm sure it's something really obvious, but I've been staring at this
code for so long now that I've effecitvely gone snow blind.
Can anyone help?
I'm using prototype 1.6.0.1, and I'm on a mac.
// goal - select all external links and onclick, open that link in a
new window, in an unobtrusive manner
var openNewWindow = function(element) {
element.observe('click', function() {window.open(element.href);} );
};
// begin constructing regexp that makes any url with the host domain
in it, and with the optional www prefix
var internalUrl = / + (www)? + document.location.hostname + /;
// turn string into regexp to match against
var pattern = eval(internalUrl);
// reject all links whose href matches the host domain regexp defined
above
filteredResult = result.reject(function(e) {
return e.href.match(pattern);
});
add onclick handler each member of the array of remaining links
filteredResult.invoke('openNewWindow');

So there is an internal iFrame object that is getting references from its containing document object. When the iframe reloads it no longer has these references?

Does the parent page take an action on the IFrame on its initial load that isn't being taken on the iframe refresh?

What you're looking for is probably Basic Access Authentication[1], if you're using Apache with Phusion Passenger (aka mod_rails) this[2] will probably help you.
