Re: [Proto-Scripty] Ajax CORS error message

2013-01-16 Thread Shane McCarron
are you using Chrome by any chance?  I noticed that it complains about some
other headers I try to set in the same way.

On Wed, Jan 16, 2013 at 4:21 PM, Dave Lazar hunkyb...@gmail.com wrote:

 As I mentioned... this a CORS setup, so obviously it is cross-site. That
 part of the stack works perfect, and the response is indeed dished out to
 the browser as expected. The only problem I have  is Prototype not liking
 the header... I am looking for the tip that will silence that...

 Thanks

 If not, it's a cross-site scripting security issue.

 Of course, if you are using a hash as a means of ensuring that an item is

to  so you can test to see if you have already seen myKey.

 You said it yourself: The order is not guaranteed. It could change

 (Array#sort[2]), then loop through them in their (now) sorted order.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: $ function and IE

2011-08-31 Thread Shane McCarron
Yes... but in IE (in particular *old* IE) that lookup is very expensive.
Doing it twice isn't a big deal. But if it is in a loop and is being done
LOTS of times it can become a big deal.  Basically, document.getElementById
is super slow in IE.

[Proto-Scripty] Best way to show / hide a menu

2011-07-11 Thread Shane McCarron
I have a menu of operations (shown as icons) that I want to reveal when the
user move their mouse over a region.  Prototype's event handling +
scriptaculous gives me great ways to do this.  However, I want to menu (a
floating div) to disappear when:

   1. Some time has elapsed and the user never moved into the menu.
   2. The user moves into the menu and then moves out of it.
   3. The user selects an item in the menu.

These all seem pretty easy to accomplish, but I keep running into weird edge
conditions.  Like if the user exposes the menu, moves the cursor into the
menu, and then minimizes all the windows on the screen (Windows-D), then
reveals the browser window... in my implementation the menu is still down
even though it no longer has focus!

It occurs to me that this is most likely a solved problem.  Probably solved
over and over and over.  So... can anyone recommend a simple solution that
will just handle all these edge conditions for me?  Or recommend an idiom I
can implement myself that will avoid the weird cases?

Thanks!

 Does your field have the ID attribute set to 'zip'? If it's working in IE,

 on the page) ID for their magic to happen. If you can't add an ID to the
 input, you can pass a more elaborate selector like document.forms[0].zip
 (without surrounding quotes, naturally) into the function. $() will work
 from an object or an ID, but it won't work with just a name, except in IE,
 which has a serious bug in that corner.

 When I press and release a key, my function cities gets called, it
 tests the length of zip and then jumps into prototype.js on line 4064 where
 it attempts to execute the following lines:

  1) getValue: function(element) {
  2)  element = $(element);
  3)  var method = element.tagName.toLowerCase();
  4) return Form.Element.Serializers[method](element);
 When line 1 gets called, element is set to zip; line 2 returns null and
 line 3 throws an Element is null  error!

 Like I said, this all works fine in IE.  Any ideas?

[Proto-Scripty] Getting the value of a form field

2010-04-30 Thread Shane McCarron
I am sure this is just ignorance on my part, but...

I would really like to $F('formField') to get the value of whatever field I
am interested in.  However, it seems formField needs to be the field's ID,
not its Name.  That's cool, except when I have Radio Buttons or Check
Boxes.  You aren't allowed to have multiple elements with the same ID and
still be valid.  What's the right way to do this?

Clever!  I will try that.  Another approach that might work for some is to
serialize the form data into a hash.  Then you should have the values for
each form control indexed by their name.

var h = $('formId').serialize( true ) ;

Then, for a form control with a name of 'name' you can do:

if (h{'name'} == 'valueIcareAbout') ...

  I think this might work.  You could wrap it up into a function, of
 course, with name as a parameter.



 
 $$(‘input[type=”radio”][name=”whatever”]’).find(function(radio)

{ return radio.checked; }).value;

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: The Unofficial Wiki

2010-04-08 Thread Shane McCarron
I agree - a central site that is easy to contribute to seems the best path.

 And my answer: I really like having something owned by the community,
 but I don't see much point if there's no itch to scratch. People are
 more likely to find content on the main site than in an unofficial
 wiki somewhere. As long as contributing to the site is _easy_, well-
 publicized, and not a long drawn-out process, I think we're all (core
 team, community, new adopters of Prototype) better served migrating
 the content to the main site and going that route.

  Hi folks,
 
  As many of you know, we've had an unofficial Prototype 
  script.aculo.us wiki for about 18 months:
 http://proto-scripty.wikidot.com/
 
  I have a question for the community, but first a preamble.
 
  Preamble:
 
  In the last year (more, actually), there's been precisely one edit by
  someone other than me. :-) (Doug Reeder added an on0 handler to the
  bulletproof ajax page.) I wrote the vast majority of the articles and
  have been very nearly the only person maintaining them, not that
  there's been a lot to do on that front. (Don't get the impression I
  mind; I don't.) This suggests to me that -
 
  1. We don't need a wiki
 
  or
 
  2. We do, but it's too hard to contribute to that one because you have
  to request access and wait for it to be granted
 
  As a side note: Tobie and the core team are working on moving the main
  Prototype website to GitHub (don't worry, the URL doesn't change) from
  the current CMS it's on (Mephisto), and Tobie says that it will be a
  lot easier for people to contribute official content to the website
  once that's done.
 
  Question:
 
  Do we need a wiki with user-generated content? Or should we just move
  all of the relevant content to the Prototype website and make sure the
  process for contributing to the website is well-publicized, easy, and
  efficient?
 
  Thanks,

Yes, it was populated above with some complex JSON string.  Thanks!

 I think:

 should be:

 'msg' is not explicitly defined in your post, it is set somewhere,
 right?

[Proto-Scripty] AJAX.Request complains about 'function expected' in IE6

2010-03-16 Thread Shane McCarron
I have a simple AJAX Request that I am trying to run through Prototype
1.6.0.3:

var uri = 'someURI' ;

new Ajax.Request(uri, {
method: 'post',
parameters : msg ,
asynchronous: true,
requestHeaders: ['Accept-Encoding', '']
}) ;

In IE 6 this throws an error about 'function expected'.  Since none of
the parameters I am passing require functions, I am at a loss to
figure out exactly what it is complaining about.  Does anyone have a
clue?
