Hi All,
After reading Justin's last post
(http://encytemedia.com/blog/articles/2006/07/05/writing-custom-
iterators-for-prototype) where he uses the following piece of code:
var tags = "div p span ul ol li span form input select textarea h1 h2
h3 h4 h5 h6 dl dt em strong";
$A(tags.split(' ')).each(function(tag) {
//do something
});
I came to realize that Prototype could possibly do with a three liner
add-on for even more syntactic sugar:
function $w(string){
return string.split(/\s+/);
}
which just is a javascript implementation of the ruby flavored %w{ ant
bee cat dog elk } and which would enable, for example, the following:
$w("ant bee cat dog elk ").each(function(animal){
alert(animal);
});
What do you think? Is it overkill or should I just go ahead and post an
enhancement patch?
Any suggestions welcomed...
Regards,
Tobie
