[mochikit] Is anyone working on autocomplete for MochiKit?

2006-07-31 Thread GHUM

I googled the web and the newsgroup. I tried Controls.js from the
trunk.

And learned, that the Autocomplete within Controls.js is not supported
(a mail within this group); and after trying learned it does not work
(event handling onkeypress is not working with MochiKit.Signal, wrong
attribute-Access to event-object)

So my question: is anybody working allready on an autocomplete control
for MochiKit? Has anyone fixed Controls.js?

Or is the recommended path to start there, repair the bugs and post
back?

... trying to avoid reinventing,

Harald

Signal should work. What's wrong with it? Can you post a complete  
example?

Thanks,
Beau

 Signal works beautifully. The problem sits within the Controls.js:

 {{{...}}}

 There is no event.keyString within MochiKit.Signal, that should  
 be event.key().string; and there is also no KEY_RETURN, that is  
 called KEY_ENTER .

 So I started debugging Controls.js from the SVN Head, which is  
 there by Error as I found from this group. :)

I'm not too familiar with that code, but keyString is definitely  
wrong. I've committed a fix:
http://trac.mochikit.com/changeset/1062

If you find any other problems like this, please submit a bug or let  
us know on the list.

Thanks!

 It should have been attached inline after my signature.  But yes.  It is here:

Hi!


Could you take a look at it?  Is my code wrong?  Should I adopt a different
approach to the problem? :-) 

I'm really willing to go on with this part of the code (even though I'm
working on different parts simultaneously, this is pending on my side...).

Hi Jorge,

If you used native browser events to connect to a lot of elements,  
your page would probably slow to a crawl as well. I don't think your  
code or Signal are introducing any other problems on top of this one.

A solution to your problem might be to connect() at a higher level  
for an event, say on document or window. From there, you can see  
where it came from (http://mochikit.com/doc/html/MochiKit/ 
Signal.html#fn-target). Something like this *should* work in your  
situation, but you'll need to write and test the code to be sure.

[mochikit] Re: Favorite JavaScript books?

2006-07-31 Thread Mark Ramm

 Are there any favorite books that you've read?

I have the JavaScript bible, and it's pretty exaustive, but sometimes
it's difficult to sort through the unimportant stuff to find the thing
you need to know.

I also have Dom Scripting from apress.  It's not exaustive, and it's
more geared towards designers.  But it does a good job of explaining
how you can script the DOM in ways that are backwards compatable with
older browsers.The writing is good, and the flow of ideas makes
sense and I've found that I could use the book to teach people
(designer) enough javascript to make their job easier.

Hmm, I'd need to take a closer look at that one. Some browsers do  
make the distinction. When I get some more time, I'll take a close  
look at all of that code.

Thanks,
Beau

I found the mozilla developer center is the good place (each function
has its example)
