[Proto-Scripty] Re: Prototype's setOpacity does not work consistently in all browsers

2008-10-27 Thread Paul Kim
Hi, I realized that I made a mistake:

> Element.extend(document.body);
> document.body.insert({bottom: newDiv}).setOpacity(0.5);

should have been

   Element.extend(document.body);
   document.body.insert({bottom: newDiv});
   newDiv.setOpacity(0.5);

Now, setOpacity works the way it should. Thanks Tobie for your response.
Without it, I don't think I would have caught that mistake. Sorry about
that.

I don't think "document.body.insert({bottom: newDiv}).setOpacity(0.5);" is
equivalent to "document.body.insert({bottom: newDiv});
 document.body.setOpacity(0.5);" because the first one is setting newDiv
with an opacity of 0.5 whereas the second one is setting  with an
opacity of 0.5.  What I'm trying to do is created an absolutely positioned
div element with an opacity of 0.5 and insert it to the bottom of the 
tag, not set the  tag itself with an opacity of 0.5.

That's equivalent to doing this:

  Element.extend(document.body);
  document.body.insert({bottom: newDiv})
  document.body.setOpacity(0.5);

Is that what you are trying to do?
