[Rails-spinoffs] Re: Prototype 1.6.02 Error in Firefox
Are you calling document.getElementsByClassName before the dom loads? document.getElementsByClassName is deprecated because some browsers support it natively and their implementation is different than Prototypes. You should use $$() instead and only after the dom loads. - JDD --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

or just do $A(document.getElementsByClassName('classname')), which
will return an extended element array.

But not an array of extended elements. :-)

[Rails-spinoffs] Re: Prototype 1.6.02 Error in Firefox
@Frederick - in this case
$A(document.getElementsByClassName('classname')) would convert the
nodeList into an array (arrays are naturally extended via
their .prototype). In Firefox and other browsers all HTML elements
inherit from the Element.prototype so the elements would already be
extended.
@Peter - The fact that document.getElementsByClassName() is deprecated
is reason enough not to use it. Also it is painfully long to type
whereas $$() or element.select() are much easier.
