The XHTML specification allows it only for elements which may not have any content (such as HR, BR and IMG). If you try and use if for elements which could have comment but don't, the results are unpredictable, and depend on the browser. It is a good idea to avoid doing this. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.

No problem for me - at least, not /that/ problem. :-) I was the one who suggested he had the filename wrong when he didn't. The original problem was Alex's, and I hadn't noticed the lack of a either. I guess it may depend on how forgiving the browser is, but certainly if I remove it from one of my applications Firefox 3 doesn't like it. Could well be the answer then. -- Cheers...

Subject: [Proto-Scripty] Trouble getting started with Prototype
Hey, I'm new to Javascript but not to programming. I decided to use
prototype because of the helpful functions it appeared to offer.
Here is what I have in a nutshell:
function editInfo()
{
$('box').remove();
// A Bunch of other stuff goes here
after the fact.
}
The Prototype functions are in javascriptPrototype.js. I am trying to
remove (or delete the contents of if someone has a better idea) the
div element with id="box". I get an error everytime in IE 7.
Anyone have any tips or suggestions?
Thanks.

Alex,
I retraced your steps in downloading and renaming prototype, and it still
seems to work fine for me, so that doesn't appear to be the issue.
Is the error message somewhat helpful to be posted? Also, have you tried
using other prototype functions? If not, I'd do some simple error checking
(alert $('box').id or something) just to make sure your program is getting
access to the library. Never used remove() or anything, but it seems like
the code part is fine...
Mitch

Chris,
What I downloaded from Prototype was titled: "prototype-1.6.0.3.js".
I renamed that file to "javascriptPrototype.js" so that I could use
it. I uploaded it into my directory. And from there I got to the
question I had above.
Does that clear anything up or help at all? Is there anything else I
should have titled "prototype.js" ???
