Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: 4 different browsers - 4 different responses

2010-08-17 Thread Walter Lee Davis
One thing to add here (in agreement with TJ) is that Prototype demands  
a valid page in order to work predictably. If a particular page or  
effect won't work correctly, the answer might be in the HTML or it  
might be in the JavaScript. And they're both valid points to discuss  
here, in my opinion, because they bear on getting the framework to,  
well, work.

No, you are right. I sometimes think that everything I do on the
client side is to do with Prototype.

The same argument was just raised at http://news.php.net/php.db/47310,
so it isn't just this list that suffers from subscribers having a
mental block on the reason for the list's existence.

Please accept my apologies.

As my school reports always said ... "Could try harder.".

http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/a/target

says ...

"The target attribute is deprecated and its use as a layout mechanism,
like that of the frameset, is no longer common."

I want the PDF to NOT overwrite the current page. New tab, new window
or external app - any of these (in that order of preference).

But it seems I was testing the wrong code.

Doh!
