Not so much Scriptaculous, but I posted a fix for prototype.js, which as
broken the Element.cleanWhitespace in IE when they added the
Element.extend functionality. Here's the email I sent a while back
(this fix has an added benefit of improving performance for
Element.cleanWhitespace):
Marco and I have been emailing about this and I finally found the fix,
so here it is. Feel free to pass it along to Sam, if he even responds
to bug reports any more:
In prototype.js, change line 998 From:
Element.remove(node);
To:
node.parentNode.removeChild(node);
Element.remove calls $(), which calls Element.extend. In
Element.extend, when it says element._extended = true;, it dies in IE on
text nodes (element.nodeType == 3). Since we don't really care to
extend the node just to remove it, we should not even care about
appending all of the extra functions to the node. Another option is to
put a conditional in $() that just returns the element if it has a
nodeType of 3, but I suppose there might be some weird case where you
actually want to add extra functions to text nodes (I can't think of any
at the moment, though).
Any chance you can make sure Sam gets this included in Prototype? (maybe
he already has?)
