[Rails-spinoffs] appendChild crashes ie6 onload (urget)

2006-07-22 Thread louis d walch
Has anyone encountered this problem before? A function which is attached to the window’s onLoad with Event.observe crashes ie6 ONLY when appendChild is called.   I have confirmed it across multiple computers. Even weirder, the function in question is a well tested script commonly used.

[Rails-spinoffs] [ANN] InPlaceEditor with Autocompletion

2006-07-22 Thread Ola Bini
Hi Rails AJAX controls are very handy, and the InPlaceEditor is probably one of the easiest and most neat of them all. But, it doesn't do autocompletion. I've rectified that situation. The plugin provides a few new helpers and a new JavaScript-file that extends the Ajax.InPlaceEditor with loc

script.aculo.us sure is actively maintained. I consider most stuff in it working pretty nicely (although there are a few patches waiting, I know, I know), so I don't feel there's much pressure to do rush out a new release. Plus, I'm pretty stuffed with a huge project here. Anyway, I should have

Todd, Your solution doesn't work in Safari. As per the Gentleman who helped me test this, after aborting the request, onComplete is not getting fired in Safari. We have put a hack round it by explicitly calling it after aborting. But, just wanted you to be in the loop. Thanks for a great patc

Although I do not agree with you anywhere else on your thoughts about prototype. Abstract.Insertion is the first thing I removed and replaced with a few methods on Element.Methods. Like, prependChild, insertAfter, insertAtIndex. They make more sense to me to be in Element.Methods instead of their

I have to admit I'm a little worried about the question whether I should consider script.aculo.us to be 'maintained' or not. A long time ago there was movement to release 1.6.2, and there's a few good bugfixes in the trac bug database, but not a whole lot of movement seems to be happening anymore,
