Your animations don't provide an `afterFinish` callback or similar?

(Script.aculo.us' do, but you didn't say you were using

script.aculo.us, so I'm not assuming.)



 I don't want to create a new function for using the delay:



Pretty sure that's your only choice. What's your objection to it?

 Ajax.Updater isn't working.



 I tried it like this:

 new Ajax.Updater.defer(5,'main_body', '?topic='+topic, { evalScripts:

 I don't want to create a new function for using the delay:



 var submit_ajax = function(topic) {

 submit_ajax.delay(0.7,topic);



 How is it possible to run functions that require new after a delay.



 Thanks.

Hi All,



This is not the original question, but to insert elements in the DOM,

you should do:

$('myContent').innerHTML='lt;div .. lt;/div'

  Ok, I found something...



  If I look at the HTML tree in the IE debugger, on the left panel I

  can't see any 'class' attribute. However, it does appear on the right

  panel (called Attributs), with the correct value. But IE does not

  seems to use it. I found that I can add an attribute to the div in the

  left panel. So I tried to add an attribute named 'class', and I set

  its value: this fixes the problem, and IE can apply the CSS!!!



  Then, I tried something else... I used the old-style to build the DOM

  tree:



  this.content = document.createElement('div');

  Element.extend(this.content);

  this.content.setAttribute('id', this._name + _content);

  this.content.setAttribute('class', fullContent);

  document.body.appendChild(this.content);



 I don't know if this is relevant to the problem, but you don't need to

 use 'setAttribute' for built-in attributes of HTML element:



 this.content.id = this._name + _content;



 avoids an unnecessary function call.



 For the DOM attribute 'class', the Javascript binding requires you to

 use 'className', because 'class' is a reserved word in Javascript:



 this.content.class = fullContent;



 (or, using a Prototype method)

 this.content.addClassName('fullContent');

 This is not quite the same, because if you already have a class on the

 element, this will add the new class, whereas the simple assignment

 will replace it. But since you have just created the element, there is

 no difference.



  instead of the new-style:



  this.content = new Element('div', {'id': this._name + _content,

  'class': fullContent});



  and it worked!!!



  At first, I didn't put the quotes arround the attributes names, in the

  hash:



  this.content = new Element('div', {id: this._name + _content,

  class: fullContent});



  but IE does not like this syntax (it asks for an int or a string). But

  as you can see, giving a string does not seems to work well.



 IE objects (correctly) to your using the Javascript reserved word

 'class' as an object key: Firefox is more lax and lets it through.

 'id' will work without quotes.



  Am I doing something wrong with the new-style method? Or is it a known

  issue in Prototype?



 I don't know. Your example seems to match that in the Prototype

 documentation. I would try it with 'className' instead of 'class' and

 see whether this works.

Thanks TJ, I tried to make a self-contained version, so I ripped out

prototype and did the same thing with object literals, and I still had

issues, so clearly it wasnt prototype.

In the end I figured out that the button which fired off the AJAX

request (ie the Submit button) was inside a form (I did not want it

to actually do an HTTP POST submission of the form, just call JS code)

and I had not disabled the form with onsubmit='return false', so when

I clicked submit, it was submitting the form, thus destroying the

button that made the AJAX call before the reply came back.



I had noticed that putting an alert or delay into the script caused it

to work and was tearing my hair out - obviously the delay stopped the

button being destroyed long enough for the AJAX request to come back.



Oh the joys of Asynchronous web coding.



I now have a slightly different problem, with the same button...



Once the AJAX reply comes back that the data was updated, I want to

destroy the form. But it won't let me. I guess for a similar reason to

my explanation above - the button started the call, and it is in the

response code that I wish to destroy it, so it technically hasn't

finished yet. I hope that all makes sense. If not, I will try and rig

some self contained code using the system you linked - I guess for the

ajax request I could just get it to grab a css file or something off

the server?

So, does Prototype have such support? I'd only need to change a

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Forms

2009-10-29 Thread Rick . Wellman


$F() gets the *value* of the form element (i.e. a dropdown's value, the
text in a text box, etc.)
$() just gets the DOM element itself (so would return the dropdown, the
text box, etc. respectively).
[so also, using $F() on a non-form element is fairly pointless]

Try giving your form elements IDs to match their NAME property. I have  
always needed the ID to be set in order to get a value out of $F.

 I have this form:

 try to submit the form with 'document.createPDF.submit();' is there  
 something wrong with my form?

[Proto-Scripty] Re: $$ is a violation of Model-View-Controller

2009-10-29 Thread Rick . Wellman


Though I consider javascript/prototype to be one of my weaker web app skills 
(which is why I like Prototype in the first place), I feel compelled to add to 
this discussion in that:

While I certainly agree with the Use Case that you are describing (and the one 
referenced in the response) I guess I have been lucky enough to have never 
used $$() that way.  However, I have used it (and will most likely continue to 
do so) to retrieve elements based on their CSS class selector.  In fact, some 
of the page effects that I have been asked to implement rely on the use of 
$$().  So, IMHO, maybe it is better stated that $$() is part of the View in the 
MVC paradigm?  Just like Struts is a Controller but many people use the Struts 
tags which are part of the View?

 I've been using $$ quite a lot because it has sped up DEVELOPMENT, but
 now I have realized that it will slow down MAINTENANCE.  Recently, my

 I was accessing that div with $$, I was forced to change my JS along
 with my HTML.  If I had accessed that div with $('elementID'), I would
 have only needed to edit my HTML.

 For this, I believe that $$ is a violation of the model-view-
 controller paradigm.  HTML and CSS are the view.  JS should be thought
 of as the controller.  If you think about it, JS processes user input
 just like PHP, except on a livelier schedule.  To make your website

 HTML structure.

 What are your thoughts?

Yep. I came to the very same conclusion recently -

If none of the above work...

 Hi jrochkind,
 I believe document.write is execute properly and full before your observe
 call is done.  However, document.write's job is simply to write the string
 to the browser, nothing more.  It's then the browser's job to interpret the
 string and do whatever it has to do on a different tangent. In this case,
 load an external javascript document.  So immediately after document.write
 has performed it's job, the next statement is ran--which causes the problem
 for you since the external prototype script is not ready.

 As stated above this isn't a good thing to do in general.  However, to
 answer your questionyou either of the follow (there may be more
 options):
 1. Modify the prototype.js file and add a function call at the bottom to
 let your page know prototype is loaded.
 2. Use a setInterval function to periodically check for prototype's
 existence.  Once it's available you can then stop the checking and resume
 your code.

   Okay, this mostly works. Unless you want the same script that did this

   document.write('script type=text/javascript src='

   This does NOT work, because at the point that document.observe is up

   eventually.
 
   Can anyone explain what's going on?  Does the browser not do or fully
   process the document.write until after the current script is fully

   Is there any way to have a script include the prototype library

Its not much different, but this is what i do:

if ( $('some_button') ) {
  $('some_button').observe('click', function (e) {
//do stuff.
  });
}


Ideally, i wish prototype was a bit more strict about this stuff...

If you're using Firebug, you could replace your $() definition:

function $(element) {
  if (arguments.length  1) {
for (var i = 0, elements = [], length = arguments.length; i  length;
i++)
  elements.push($(arguments[i]));
return elements;
  }
*  if (Object.isString(element)) {
var _element  = element;
element  = document.getElementById(element);

if ( element == null ) {
  console.log('' + _element + ' is null or does not exist');
  return;
}
  }
*  return Element.extend(element);
}

 Hey all,

 I was wondering if you can suggest a better way of achieving what this
 snippet does. I do it often enough that it starts bloating my code and
 frankly just gets annoying to type.

   var some_button = $('some-button')
   if ( some_button ) {
 some_button.observe(click,function(event){
   event.stop();
   form_object.save();
 });
   }

 I can compress it a bit by doing this:

   if ( some_button = $('some-button') ) {
 some_button.observe(click,function(event){
   event.stop();
   form_object.save();
 });
   }

 But that's little consolation.

 In an ideal world I would want to do something close to:

   $('some-button').observe(click,function(){
 form_object.save();
   }, false );

 Note: that false parameter would replace event.stop() which happens
 often enough. Defaults to true.

 Or even like (I know it looks like JQuery):

   $('some-button').click(function(){
 form_object.save();
   },false);

 Any ideas/suggestions?

 Thanks!

 What I'm trying to do is dynamically replace an element with another

 I don't want to resort to something like:

 new_element.onclick = old_element.onclick;

 as the prototype docs advise against using .onclick, .onmouseover etc.

 If prototype doesn't provide a way to do this, is there a bare JS way to
 do it (ie to get a list of events that were registered with
 addEventListener)? I googled but couldn't find this.

 Hi there,

 Apologies to everybody if my question is offending in any way, but
 this is my first post to such a group.

 I'm a occasional user of Prototype and Scriptaculous and pretty happy
 with these tools.

 However, I'm facing an issue for which I can find any answer around:

 I created some pages that work pretty well on modern browsers such as
 FF 3 or 3.5 and Safari 3 or 4, but I'm asked to make them run on some
 special Internet devices that run only Mozilla Firefox 1.7 with
 Javascript 1.5

 So my question is : what are the requirements of Prototype 1.6 and
 Scriptaculous 1.8, will my pages run well on such an old browser.
 If not, is there an older version of Prototype and/or Scriptaculous
 that will answer my problem.

 Thanks in advance

 Christophe

2009-07-29 Thread Rick Waldron

Colin,

I was just thinking about your statement:
(OTOH I wish that browsers and libraries would object to a very common
instance of invalid HTML: duplicate id's) And how much I agree. This is the
result...



(function () {
  var _domIdentities  = function () {};

  _domIdentities.prototype  = {
test: function () {
  var _error  = new Error('Duplicate element ID exists'),
  _elems  = $(document.body).select('*[id]'),
  _len= _elems.length,  _temp   = [], _i  = 0;

  for( ; _i  _len ; _i++ ) {
if ( _temp.indexOf( _elems[_i].id ) = 0 )
  throw _error + ' ' + _elems[_i].id + '';
else
  _temp.push( _elems[_i].id );
  }
}
  };
  new _domIdentities().test();
  delete _domIdentities;
})();


Nothing I'd consider perfect but I think its an interesting starting
point.

... perhaps if DOMNodeInserted and other mutation events where more widely
supported.

Just some zany ideas.

 Indeed. I'm not about to start using '.' or ':' in ID's myself.

 I think this is a perverse argument, but I'm not going to get excited
 about it.

  As i said - each to their own but if CSS explicits .className as a

 I think, as Rick implied above, that the designers of CSS selectors
 were ill-advised to use symbols which were permitted in id's (I'm
 assuming that the HTML spec came before the CSS one, but I haven't
 checked). But formally, there are no contexts in which these are
 ambiguous.

 But I think it would be wrong for JS libraries to refuse to work just
 because you had made certain (valid) choices in your HTML.
 (OTOH I wish that browsers and libraries would object to a very common
 instance of invalid HTML: duplicate id's)

 Hi,

 I'm not a PHP guy, but surely that ends up outputting HTML that has an
 onclick attribute calling Effect.toggle on the literal element ID
 d2?  And of course, IDs are unique in a page, so that's only ever
 going to affect one element.

 If you want to affect other elements, you'll have to give them unique
 IDs and make the call use those IDs appropriately.

I've discussed this with a respected colleague, and we both agree that just

 I started out agreeing with you, then thought about it, and realised
 that I disagree quite strongly. Why shouldn't you use dots if you
 want? Different languagfe use symbols in different ways. In both Perl
 and PHP (two widely used languages for web programming) '.' is a
 concatenation operator, not a hierarchical one. It is now quite common
 to use dots between the parts of an email name, though the purists
 used to complain that the dot was supposed to denote hierarchy.

 If the HTML spec didn't allow '.', that would be different. But since
 it does you are free to use them. There's no question of 'confusing'
 js libraries or server programs unless those libraries and programs
 are wrong, in which case they ought to be fixed.

Instead of changing the way the core works... and potentially causing
breakage to existing code - perhaps you might try rewriting your selector
statement with escaped periods.

This question caused me to read a bunch regarding valid id's from one html
spec to another, and then double back to css selector specs. Apparently,
they didn't compare notes...

2009-07-20 Thread Rick Waldron

I feel like i should provide more insight. That was rather vague. An ID
could be labelled a.b:c and referenced in your style sheet as #a.b:c but
as well as being the id of an element, it could mean:

id a, class b, pseudo-selector c.

Best to avoid the confusion and stay away from using . and : altogether.

happend when the server is back online
an the as often as it should happend while the offline time.

i don't know why?

i use an PeriodicalExecuter for my ajax request ...

that's how i do it without timeout:
--my apps
code---
new PeriodicalExecuter(
function (pe) {

var successListener = function(transport, json){
appendPost('posts', 
transport.responseJSON);
scrollToEnd();

//FireBUG###
console.log(Event : ,AJAX : Request 
successed);
//FireBUG###
};

var failureListener = function(transport, json){
show_alert('Fehler beim Aufbau der 
Verbindung zum Server.');

//FireBUG###
console.log(Event : ,AJAX : Request 
failed);
//FireBUG###
};

var exceptionListener = function(transport, 
json){
show_alert('Es liegt eine unbekannter 
Fehler vor.');

//FireBUG###
console.error(Event : ,AJAX : 
Request exception happend);
//FireBUG###
};

new Ajax.Request('app.php', {
method:'post',
parameters: { controller: 'check' },
onSuccess: successListener,
onException: exceptionListener,
onFailure: failureListener
});

}, 4);
---

i've used your patch an added an onTimeout event an the other stuff,
but under Firefox this event just happend when the server is back
online
under InternetExplorer it worked fine???!

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Ajax Request Timeout

2009-07-14 Thread Rick


hi

 But leaving aside status 0, just a logical point.  The third condition
 in your updated code:

      return (status = 200  status  300  status != 0); 

 ...is irrelevant and will never be evaluated.  If 200 = x  300, x
 cannot be zero.

i can't believe what piece rubbish of code i have written, my brain
must have bin offline :'(


i think the zero comes from that part:
--- line: 1499--
  getStatus: function() {
try {
  return this.transport.status || 0;
} catch (e) { return 0 }
  }
---

so Firefox must leave the status undefined.


@ Matt Foster : i tried your patch but it didn't work for me,
but maybe its my fault ... maybe it was a bad day of coding for me :)

i will try it again  yes the Ajax part off prototype is a bit
uncomfortable


by the way sorry I am not a native English speaker, so don't be
mad with me ;)

[Proto-Scripty] Ajax Request Timeout

2009-07-13 Thread Rick


I have googled for Ajax Request Timeout, but i didn't finde a good
working solution.

These both are for most people the best solutions.

http://positionabsolute.net/blog/2008/07/prototype-ajax-request-timeout.php
http://codejanitor.com/wp/2006/03/23/ajax-timeouts-with-prototype/

But these solutions just work half, it worked under IE8 but not under
FF3

I tried to fix it my self, so i fixed the problem that under firefox,
always the onSuccess comes, even if the server is
down.

 prototype.js   line: 1494 --
  success: function() {
var status = this.getStatus();
return !status || (status = 200  status  300);
 maby the problem
  },

 prototype.js   line: 1494 changed --
  success: function() {
var status = this.getStatus();
return (status = 200  status  300  status != 0); 
works got a onFailure event, if server is down
  },


after this fix i have a correct onFailure event in FF, IE and Opera.

I can see onResize was called.
But IE, viewport.width returns 0, and FF returns right number.
and both screen element doesn't move its position.
 
What's wrong with above code?

[Proto-Scripty] Re: iterator.call is not a function

2009-07-01 Thread Rick Waldron

The reason you need to use an index on playlist is because select returns an
array, so... instead of using the index[0] the way you've done, you can send
it back to the el.select():


$$('div.fp_YouTube').each(function(el)  {
   var player   = el.select('.player')[0]; // --- right here!
   var playlist = el.select('.playlist li'); // also... select your li's
here, this will save you another select() call on the next line!
   playlist.each(function(video)  { // -- neater.
   console.log(video.id);
   });
});


Have a look:

 I did check on the array situation -- it's so good and bad that
 finally turning to this forum and *writing it all down* usually solves
 the problem!

 In the above case, $(playlist).select('li').each didn't work, but
 playlist[0].select('li').each does.

 I'm not sure that I exactly LOVE how that works, but it's not
 terrible.  If there's a better way, I'd love to know about it.

[Proto-Scripty] Re: determine if dom:onload has happened yet?

In RC 1.6.1 when you use:

document.observe('dom:loaded', function () {
 // do stuff with the DOM
});

it is executed as early as it possibly can. Inside of that, you will not
need an additional dom:loaded listener, because the dom is loaded - it only
happens once per page render. All nodes  elements you need to access in the
page will be available once this happens (as long as they actually exist).

 Thanks Tobie. The problem again for me is when I end up adding a
 dom:loaded listener inside a dom:loaded listener!  Since adding a
 dom:loaded callback there will cause problems, but document.loaded is
 still false at that point.

 Is this the issue that you say is fixed in RC 1.6.1?  Can you
 elucidate how?  Is dom:loaded true in that situation now?  Or will
 adding a dom:loaded callback inside an existing dom:loaded callback
 actually result in your new callback being called?

 If either of those things are true, then I agree that's sufficient to
 allow me to do what I'd like. Thanks!

  The issues you mention, Jonathan, are a bug and are fixed in the
  release candidates of 1.6.1.
 
  On the other hand, modifying the behaviour of document.observe
  ('dom:loaded', callback); after the dom:loaded event was triggered
  would cause important backwards compatibility issues.
 
  It arguably would also be a very bizarre behaviour for an event
  listener and definitely hugely inconsistant with the rest of the
  Prototype and DOM API.
 
  If you want to rely on such a behaviour, it's pretty trivial to
  implement it yourself like so:
 
  function callAsSoonAsPossible(callback) {
if (document.loaded) {
  callback();
} else {
  document.observe('dom:loaded', callback);
}
 
  }
 
  and then rely on it instead.
 
  Hope this helps.

 FWIW, if the name of the additional property is static, then

 can be written:

vparams.your_additional_property = 'additional property\'s value';

 You only need the bracketed notation giving the property name as a

 name is a reserved word (although it works, of course, even if you're
 giving a literal string).

2009-06-27 Thread Rick Waldron

Right... I've come to this conclusion. Anyway, one the examples here:
http://scripty2.com/doc/scripty2%20fx/element.html#morph-class_method

$('element_id').morph('width:500px;height:500px', {
  duration: 4,
  transition: '',
  delay: .5,
  propertyTransitions: {
width: 'mirror', height: 'easeInOutCirc'
  },
  after: function(){ alert('finished');  }
});


throws an error.

this.options.transition is not a function

I forked and fixed it in base.js, its commited in my git fork if you want
it.

  Also comes with on and offline documentation (probably the most

  This first release focuses almost exclusively on the complete rewrite

  Note it depends on Prototype 1.6.1_rc3 (a development copy and a

  Also note that the API is not final yet, and it is not 100% compatible
  with the old effects API, major changes i

Take a look at this demo they have posted:

Specifically, this:


setName=function(f){
sessvars.username=f.elements[0].value;
document.getElementById('enterYourName').style.display=none;
alert('Welcome to this test of sessvars.js, '+sessvars.username+'!');
location.href=sessvarsTestPage2.html
};


Notice they are declaring a brand new sessvar object called sessvar.username


You can add new objects at anytime.


Be sure you call in sessvars.js BEFORE prototype.

Like...

  script type=text/javascript src=sessvars.js/script
  script type=text/javascript src=prototype.js/script

Could you post an example page?


Upon initial inspection... without delving too deep, I notice this:

Your references to the form elements are just that - not form element
values.

$('StateProvince') should be $('StateProvince').value or $F('StateProvince')
$('City') should be $('City').value or $F('City')

And anywhere you've used vanilla JS document.getElementById('') would be
better read as: $

document.getElementById = $




script: function (input_zip) { return ('http://cebsql05/
addressvalidation/default.aspx?city='+$('City')+'state='+$http://cebsql05/addressvalidation/default.aspx?city=%27+$%28%27City%27%29+%27state=%27+$
('StateProvince')+'zip='+ input_zip); },
   callback: function (obj) {
   t = obj.value.split(',');
   document.getElementById('City').value = t
[0];
   document.getElementById('ZipPostal').value = obj.info;

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Need help resolving conflict between Proto and Uize frameworks

2009-06-17 Thread Rick Waldron

Maybe I'm nuts but you're calling

setMovie() in the body tag


meanwhile... you have an Ajax.Request getting some data that will call...

setMovie() when successful



So... i suspect, that onload starts playing, then the ajax request finishes
and resets your player.

I dont recommend onload='' ever btw.

should change to:

script
document.observe('dom:loaded', function () {
 call function in here

});
/script


I think even Alex would agree with me on this particular inline event ;)

 script  type=text/javascript src=javascript/prototype.js/
  script
  [/code]
 
  The only time I use a prototype function in the body of the document
  is to create a function that plays a movie when a thumbnail is
  clicked.
 
  The function is:
 
  [code]
  script
  function setMovie( url, title )
  {
  $('movieHost').innerHTML = '';
  var elEmbed = document.createElement( 'embed' );
  elEmbed.src = url;
  elEmbed.setAttribute(width, 100%);
  elEmbed.setAttribute(height,100%);
  elEmbed.setAttribute(scale,aspect);
  elEmbed.setAttribute(bgcolor,black);
 
  $('movieHost').appendChild( elEmbed );
 
  $('nowPlaying').innerHTML = title;
  }
 
  new Ajax.Request( '', {
   method: 'get',
   onSuccess: function( transport ) {
 var bFirst = true;
 for( var b = 0; b  movieTags.length; b++ ) {
 
   if ( bFirst )
   {
 setMovie( url, title );
 bFirst = false;
   }
  var html = 'a href=javascript:void setMovie(\''+url+'\',\''+title
  +'\');';
   html += title+'/abr/';
 }
   }
  } );
  /script
  [/code]
 
  The only problem I'm having is that I call the function at body
  onload:
 
  [code]
  BODY onload=setMovie('Quicktimes/mov1.mov', 'Suzuki :
  quot;Fencequot;  1 of 12')
  [/code]
 
  In order that the first movie starts playing right away...
 
  And everything is fine... EXCEPT that about 10 or 15 seconds into the
  first movie it skips back to the beginning and starts playing again.
  Once it's done that everything works fine until a page reload - and
  then it plays and skips back.
 
  I've tried changing the order of the script references in the head
  section... but that breaks the uize framework.
 
  Is there some way to recode the function with absolutes?
 
  Thanks!

  Ok, I have found a better way to explain this.

  alert(params);
 
  This does not show the form elements that were included via: div

  Why is that the case?

   There is an onChange that calls the javascript function getTerritories
   () allows the
   div id=territories/div to display which has a form element
   called territory. At the end of the same function, it calls the other
   javascript function getAdjForm(). getAdjForm() looks to see if the

I'm developing a library that will allow this sort of syntax. Actually, it

I've created a use case of your question.

If you view source on the page, you'll see i'm calling prototype.js and

GenevaJS allows me to write jQuery syntax in the Prototype environment.

 Hi,

 $$ returns an array[1][2], and arrays don't have a setOpacity method.
 You want to call the setOpacity method on each element in the array,
 which you can do in a variety of ways thanks to Prototype's Enumerable
 [3] mix-in, which it mixes in with arrays.  In this case, probably
 Enumerable#invoke[4].

TJ,

Al MacDonald of Processing.js used GenevaJS in a presentation last night...
he wanted to use Box2D.js (a prototype extension) but he's not familiar with
Prototype syntax... anyway its now posted on our site, with links to his
presentation.

I dont see it as a tool for people making the move... no movement at all. I
see it as a tool to reduce the amount of code we're writing. Or perhaps for
a jQuery developer that gets a job at a prototype shop... there are many
scenarios. We're planning on meeting with the Boston Rails Group soon to
discuss working with them to build it into Rails as a helper to prototype...
as I mentioned it gzips to 3k.

Also - GenevaJS is sideways compatible, for example:

$('.classname').eq(1).highlight();

eq(1) - jquery method for showing the element at index 1 of $('.classname'),
it will get highlight()'ed from effects.js

(yeah... that example is super simple.. but i've been doing some zany stuff,
which i intend to post)

Anyway, that example:

   http://genevajs.com/demos/demo-set-opacity.php
 
If you view source on the page, you'll see i'm calling prototype.js
 and
genevajs (this is MY version, its filled with JUNK, please do not use
   this).
GenevaJS allows me to write jQuery syntax in the Prototype
 environment.

 Hi,
 
  $$('img.alpha').setOpacity(0.5);
 
 $$ returns an array[1][2], and arrays don't have a setOpacity
 method.
 You want to call the setOpacity method on each element in the
 array,
 which you can do in a variety of ways thanks to Prototype's
 Enumerable
 [3] mix-in, which it mixes in with arrays.  In this case, probably
 Enumerable#invoke[4].

  Then, after the body tag I have:

  This does not work for me. It dose work however work if I give

 function blind2(){
 Effect.toggle('id 2 here','BLIND'); return false;

 And loaded the functions onclick

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Event.toggle

Alex is right ... I would even suggest not using Event.observe(window,
'load', function() {}); for this application at all...


you can wrap all those other event handlers in one big

document.observe('dom:loaded', function () {

all your stuff goes here.

});

 If you want to toggle something after some time just do something like

 var timerOuting=setTimeout(function() {
 $('foo').toggle;

 },5000); // 5 seconds

 will toggle foo after 5 seconds of window loading if you put it in a
 wrapper

Simple fix, you need to put those observers inside the proper
document.observe('dom:loaded') block for them to actually know when and what
to start observing.

Sorry, should've explained why IE is so dumb... Firefox knows to wait to
execute, but it doesnt know everything all the time, so its safer to wrap
everything in the document.observe(). IE doesnt know anything at all and
tries to execute as the page loads... so if you start observing elements
that arent there, IE basically says: 'tough shit'


Good luck!

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Working outside loop, but not inside

Yeah, i discovered the same gotcha...

the JS should actually look like this:

document.observe('dom:loaded', function () {
  $$('.blinders').each(function (b) {

b.observe('click', function () {
  Effect.toggle(this.next(), 'blind');
  // or like this if you used the second version posted:
Effect.toggle(this.down(), 'blind');
});
  });
});

 I've implemented what Rick (Thank You!) suggested, and it seems to
 have solved the recognition problem.  The only minor problem I'm still
 having is that instead of a sliding effect, the div just abruptly
 appears without sliding.  It's as if it knows the div needs to be
 displayed onclick, but not that it should call a slide.  I'm assuming
 its because I'm just using script tags as opposed to pasting that
 into one of the js files.  Which file should I be putting it in?  I
 examined the scriptaculous and prototype files for similar looking
 code, but being a supernoob I'm reluctant to just throw it in

[Proto-Scripty] Re: $$ behavior in IE ?

That still wont work...

 console.log( $$('#gridRow').last().down().innerHTML );

# --- is for IDs

you need:

 console.log( $$('.gridRow').last().down().innerHTML );


And i PROMISE that wont work either, you need to iterate through
$$('.gridRow') if you want to output both rows.

Like so:


   div class=gridRow
 spanhi/span
   /div
   div class=gridRow
 spanbye/span
   /div
   script
 document.observe('dom:loaded',function(){
  $$('.gridRow').each( function (g) {
console.log(g.down().innerHTML);
  });
 });
   /script


dig it.

 Hello, you cannot set the same ID more than once; You problably wanted
 to use classes instead of it;

 [example]
div class=gridRow
  spanhi/span
/div
div class=gridRow
   spanbye/span
/div
script
  document.observe('dom:loaded',function(){
console.log( $$('#gridRow').last().down().innerHTML );
  });
/script
 [/example]

 I think firefox always evaluate the very last ID found in whole
 document. I dont use IE though.
 Cheers

[Proto-Scripty] Re: Possible Bug: Youtube in a Draggable DIV

1.Your link is 404, I guessed and added an L to htm (.html)

2. Use the option 'handle'... take a look:

 Hi everyone.

 I'm experiencing some possible bugs with a Scriptaculous draggable DIV
 and Youtube.

 The first issue is with Firefox. The issue arises when I put a Youtube
 video inside a div, inside a draggable div. If I click the play button
 in FF, the div binds to my mouse in a semi-transparent state, and
 follows it around the screen. I can no longer control the Youtube
 video, and I have to close/refresh the page or exit the browser to
 unbind.

 Also, in Safari 4 Public Beta, I can't use the play controls. However,
 if I remove the draggable code, the play button works fine.

 Googling the topic presented this thread from another person with the
 same issue, along with a sample:

 http://www.mail-archive.com/rubyonrails-spino...@googlegroups.com/msg01602.html
 The sample is:
 http://preppylion.com/problem/draggable.htm

 Here's the relevant info:
 Mac OS 10.5.7 Intel
 Firefox 3.0.10
 Safari 4 Public Beta 5528.17

 I can't release the URL of my test page that exhibits this behavior,
 as its an in-production web page for a client. However, my source code
 looks like this:

 div id=productfeature
  div id=productfeaturecontent
div id=productfeatureleft
  object width=280 height=182param name=movie
 value=http://www.youtube.com/v/PcBlL3CtFcAhl=enfs=1;/paramparam
 name=allowFullScreen value=true/paramparam
 name=allowscriptaccess value=always/paramembed src=http://
 www.youtube.com/v/PcBlL3CtFcAhl=enfs=1 type=application/x-
 shockwave-flash allowscriptaccess=always allowfullscreen=true
 width=280 height=182/embed/object
/div
div id=productfeatureright
  h4Headline/h4
  pPositioning text./p
/div
  /div
 /div
 script type=text/javascript
new Draggable('productfeature');
 /script
