I'm not a JavaScript expert, so I don't have any strong opinions on the
choice of a library. I have some suggestions, however.
I haven't looked at the JavaScript library integration lately, but I
recall that it started out with creating "connector code" in
selectall.js. In other words, selectall.js was used as a facade so the
third-party library can be swapped out without too much effort.
That's why JavaScript function arguments are sent as Strings - so the
String arguments can be parsed into whatever form the third-party
library needs.
While this effort is underway, it would be nice if we could have a
separate file for the library facade. I think selectall.js was used at
the start out of laziness - the file was already there. Now the name of
that file doesn't match its contents.

Hey guys,
i started the work to update the Dojo libary to the current version 1.4.
And i have to say that it didn't satisfy me to work on every Dojo based
JaveScript for a little version update. It will coast a lot of time to
test
and update all the JavaScript Code. And what we have at the end a new
heavy
Dojo libary which brings a lot of widget but it's hard to extend :-)
So i have another (maybe better idea). Why we didn't set Dojo and
Prototype
as depricated
and starting to use jQuerry. In my optinion jQuerry is a better invest in
the future. There are a lot of Widget/ Plugin's too and it's much lighter
than Dojo.
Instead of spending my time with updating all the Dojo stuff, i could
spend
my time to migrate all Prototype / Dojo based Code to jQuerry.
What do you think?
Cheers
Hi Sascha,
I think we have to make up our minds, and make a choice. Then, go for
it. I had the same probleme as you a while ago, when introducing charting.
Changing to another library is ok with me, but going from one to another
every time is not.
Maybe we should raise a vote, and then make with what the communauty has
decided !
Cheers,
