Strange difference rails 2.0.2 and 2.1.0 drop_receiving_element

janre...@xs4all.nl (Remco) — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 17:18:29 UT

Reader,
I found this strange difference between rails 2.0.2. and 2.1.0

<%= drop_receiving_element "bdiv",
:onDrop => "function(drag,drop)
{ ax=''+drag.id;
#{remote_function(:url => { :action => 'move/\'+ax+\''})}}
"
%>

In 2.0.2 Parameters: {"controller"=>"items", "action"=>"move/item_31"}

Aborting Ajax.Request

mert.hurt...@gmail.com (matte) — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 22:55:37 UT

Hi everyone,

I have found a way to cancel an Ajax.Request. Just wanted to know if
there is an already solution for this, or a better one?

Here is the code:

var axConnection;
new Ajax.Request('sample.php', {
onCreate: function(request)
{ axConnection = request; },

scriptacolus: Ajax.Autocompleter in top of the input field

pawelfrit...@googlemail.com (pawel) — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 20:26:07 UT

I use the Ajax.Autocompleter and it works well. Unfortunately I don't
have any influence on the behaviour (inlinestyle) of the (js)
generated source.

It looks like this:
<div style="position: absolute; left: 15px; top: 31px; width: 181px;"
id=".." class="...">
The div expands in direction of the bottom.

Prototype, JSON and headers

transistor....@gmail.com (Transistor) — Sun, 10 Aug 2008 20:35:31 UT

Hi everyone.
I love JSON and using Prototype has help me reduce the code to handle
AJAX responses.
But one thing keeps me confused and sometimes even frustrated.
I don't really understand what is going on with the headers, so if
someone could take some time to explain what is going on, I (and
probably a lot more people) would be very thankful.

Adjusting the height of a div to fill the window

jamesjreyno...@gmail.com (James) — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 16:00:27 UT

I think I just need a little education on this topic so that I can
search for a solution more effectively.

I have a window with some stacked divs inside, the height of the top
divs will vary depending on their contents. I want to dynamically
adjust the bottom div to fill the remaining space in the window. I

Hi,

I need help with the following problem.

var xspanid = .. whatever ...
Event.observe(xspanid, "click",
this.deleteitem.bindAsEventLis tener(this, xspanid));
</code>

the code above works (I've included two lines that I think are
equivalent and both work the same, just . The problem I'm having is
