Ok - then I can't use prototype. It's out of my possibilities to check with every framework, as I don't have access to all possible javascript-frameworks a MyFaces user could combine with his MyFaces-webapps.
In this case, I'll have to drop prototype and replace everything with dojo. Sigh! lots of work to do ;) However, I still think that something that makes it a little less convenient (prefixes are just a few keyboard-hits more) but a lot more stable to use prototype would be well worth being implemented! regards, Martin On 1/3/06, Ryan Gahl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Went to the official Ajile website, downloaded the thing and took a > look.
