Hugh,
Two things:
1. Even if you aren't happy with responses to your questions, it's not
okay to repost. Your original post did show up. In fact, you got a
reply in that thread before you reposted and started this second
thread. For readers of this thread, here's his original and if you
feel like responding, please do so there:
http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-scriptaculous/browse_thread/thread/9a7756f0a145cb14#
2. Can you explain your message subjects, please? In general, when
posting to a discussion group, it's best to use a subject that
highlights the main aspect of your thread. This "X new messages in Y
topics" message subject is not useful (and in fact, I only barely
bothered to look at your first message, having initially assumed it
would be spam -- fortunately I did bother to look at it, saw it wasn't
spam, and cleared it through). If you're sending messages to the
group by replying to a group digest email, please correct the subject
line before posting. And that may increase the odds of someone
helping you out.
HTH,
