Hi,
On IE, Prototype can't extend elements at the prototype level and so
you have to extend them individually if you get/create them without
going through Prototype. To do that, just pass the element through the
`$` function:
var newImg = $(document.createElement("img"));
The reason you don't have to do that on Firefox or other browsers is
that on those browsers, Prototype can add its enhancements to the
*prototypes* of elements rather than individually to each element. But
not on IE. More here:
http://prototypejs.org/learn/extensions
You have to do this whenever you use raw DOM methods (like
document.createElement, or document.getElementById, or
document.getElementsByTagName, etc.) rather than Prototype
equivalents.
Alternately, of course, you can just go through Prototype whenever
creating or retrieving elements; then Prototype will ensure they've
been extended before giving them to you. E.g.:
function addImage(src, div) {
var newImg = new Element("img");
newImg.id="Image"+div;
$("img"+div).appendChild(newImg);
papa=$("img-upload");
$("img"+div).style.display="block";
hijo=$("upload"+div).style.display="none";
newImg.src = src;
newImg.observe('load', loadcrop);
}
There I've just replaced `document.createElement` with `new Element`
and replaced `document.getElementById` with `$`.
Separately, I would recommend reversing the order of your last two
lines to:
newImg.observe('load', loadcrop);
newImg.src = src;
...just in case the image is already in cache.
HTH,
