I did the following which seems to fix the problem, note the last two set_style calls take a string rather than a hash:
page[k].set_style({:'font-size' => font_sz, :color => col, :position => 'absolute', :left => (40 + (horz)), :top => ((tidx * 100) + 70) #:'z-index' => 20 }) page[k].set_style 'z-index: 20' page[k].set_style 'font-size: ' + font_sz.to_s ================================================ I found this on the web: http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-core/msg/48ce0bd3949ff222 where it seems to say: > Note that for performance reasons, we've deprecated the use of * > uncamelized* style property names when setting styles using a hash. So If > you have code that looks like this: > $("header").setStyle({ "font-size": "12px" }); > You need to replace it with either of the following: > $("header").setStyle({ fontSize: "12px" }); > $("header").setStyle("font-size: 12px"); .. > Both params "background-color" and "z-index" won't be set anymore > using 1.6.0.rc0. > The exact same code does it well by using 1.5.1.1. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
