The problem is that iterating (via `each`) over a hash created from an array yields bunch of prototype's `Array.prototype` extras. Wouldn't `var errors = json.errors;` be enough? You can keep errors in a format of `{ name: '...', message: '...' }`: onFormSuccess : function(transport) { var json = transport.responseText.evalJSON(true); var errors = json.errors; if (errors.length) { this.form.down('.error').show(); errors.each(function(error) { this.showError(error.name, error.message); }, this); } else { this.form.submit(); } } [...] > Regards, > laf. -- kangax --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
