Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: Autocompleter does not work in FireFox 3.5.5
Everyone seems to have missed a solid point on this ...
The scripts are loded localhost:4402
and the server= localhost:8080
Thats an XDR as the ports differ ...
Perhaps 3.5.5 has some different security protocol in place that wont allow
it but earlier did

U, right, sure, yeah, of COURSE i saw that... (didn't).
i tend to agree with you on [not] placing the active script block at
the end of the document and trusting it to work 100% of the time. Like
you, i haven't seen any hard data on why NOT to, but just don't fully
trust it.
i don't see any obvious reason the script would be failing. Tracing
back #clearWhitespace from Prototype, it only occurs in Autocompleter
in the #onComplete callback. i don't use the class that much, so i'm
not the best one to ask. i just happened across your initial response
in my digest email. :O
Sorry i couldn't be more help on this one.

I've never been comfortable relying on that. I've heard people say it,
some of them even people who seem like they know what they're doing,
but I've never been comfortable *relying* on it. I really should find
(or do) some really robust tests, probably a point of ignorance for
me.
Good catch that his script block *is* at the end. If you can count on
elements being in place at that point, any idea why it's failing?

But the error is obvious enough in this case: You're trying to access
the DOM from inline script, which won't work; the DOM doesn't exist
when that script is executed. You need to use the window.load or
dom:loaded event.
document.observe('dom:loaded', function() {
// Create the autocompleter
});
