has anyone checked out open rico <http://openrico.org/>? its built on prototype and it has a module loading mechanism different than scriptaculous. so what you do on a given page is load rico.js, then you have access to the module loader, which is used simply, by Rico.loadModule('moduleName'); which you can pass multiple parameters or call multiple times. then there is a sister method, Rico.onLoad(), which will fire once all the modules loaded by loadModule are available in the dom. it also has a list of module dependencies akin to what Shakakai was talking about (abbreviated here) moduleDependencies : { Accordion : ['ricoBehaviors.js','ricoEffects.js','ricoComponents.js'], Color : ['ricoColor.js'], Corner : ['ricoStyles.js'], DragAndDrop: ['ricoDragDrop.js'],
one reason i like it is you can load w/e you like on the initial page; then later on, if you need some additional functionality, you can just call Rico.loadModule() again. it doesnt play nice w/ scriptaculous tho :( i have to end up loading some files directly by using <script> tags sent by the server when using them in tandem. -nathan --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
