Hi,
The latest version of Scriptaculous will not correctly load if the
main file (scriptaculous.js) is not loaded in the <HEAD> of the page.
The new version only looks in the Head for the Script tag.
On some of my pages, that is not an option, and the <script> tags are
in the body.
To fix it, I had to change line 49 and change $$('head script[src]')
to $$('script[src]')
Hope this can be fixed in the next version...

So, why can't your scripts be in the head? Do you know you can add
scripts to the head dynamically? Like this:
var fileref = document.createElement('script');
fileref.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
fileref.setAttribute("src", '/javascript/common20.js');
if (typeof fileref != "undefined")
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(fileref);
scripts to the head dynamically? Like this:
var fileref = document.createElement('script');
fileref.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
fileref.setAttribute("src", '/javascript/common20.js');
if (typeof fileref != "undefined")
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(fileref);

image_template.html, and have a header.html+footer.html defined, the
scripts will have to go in the body.
I also found issues with xhtml1.1 and the DOM. Had to use these
insteaad
function createElement(element) {
if (typeof document.createElementNS != 'undefined') {
return document.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml',
element);
}
else if (typeof document.createElement != 'undefined') {
return document.createElement(element);
}
return false;
}
function setAttribute(element, name, value) {
if (typeof element.setAttributeNS != 'undefined') {
return element.setAttributeNS('http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml', name,
value);
}
else if (typeof element.setAttribute != 'undefined') {
return element.setAttribute(name, value);
}
return false;
}

I also have the same problem, but I use Google Ajax API Loader, so I
don't know if the loader puts the javascript files in the head or
somewhere else. How can I solve this problem??
Thank you in advance.

I'm sorry to re-open this thread, but no-one has told me anything
about it.
Does anyone use Google Ajax Loader API with Prototype & Scriptaculous?
Have you got the same problem? How can I solve it?
Thank you in advance.

Hi There,
I use the google API loader, just above the closing body tag like
this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/
libs/prototype/1.6.0.3/prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/
libs/scriptaculous/1.8.1/scriptaculous.js?
load=effects,dragdrop,builder"></script>
The javascript declarations for the Scriptaculous dependent files are
inserted directly under the original call in 1.8.1. I also noticed
that in 1.8.2 it only works if you have the declaration in the page
head.
At the moment, I'm sticking with 1.8.1 but to be honest, there's no
reason why I couldn't move the declarations to the head of the
document.
Sorry that's not an answer, but hopefully it helps a bit.

Hi George,
Thank you very much for your answer. Yes, it did help me a bit!
-
The problem is that I don't load those libraries directly, but using
the google.load() functionality. So my question was: where does
google.load() insert the scripts I call?
Thanks a lot!

Yeah, I just found the same thing after almost throwing my computer
out of the window after trying to upgrade scripty to 1.8.2. The
"update" breaks everything if you don't have the scripts in the head.
It's strange that it was changed from 1.8.1 to only look in the head.
