Strange difference rails 2.0.2 and 2.1.0 drop_receiving_element

2008-08-17T17:18:29Z

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

2008-08-15T22:55:37Z

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

2008-08-14T20:26:07Z

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

2008-08-10T20:35:31Z

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

2008-08-08T16:00:27Z

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.

Event.observe(xspanid, "click",
this.deleteitem.bindAsEventLis tener(this, xspanid));

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
