Re: [JSMentors] Re: client-side development environment

regarding the autocomplete; Webstorm is pretty OK, but I like IntelliJ better as it supports JsTestDriver from Google (on the wife's mb pro). Having said that, I now tend to use XRefresh in combination with a simple text editor on windows (have to work on win at my job). XRefresh really shines whe

Re: [JSMentors] Loading .js files dynamically

I agree with Kyle Simpson (@Getify, creator of LABjs) in that we shouldn't need script loaders - hence his fight to get async=true implemented as part of the spec - but at this stage we don't have a whole lot of alternatives. But saying that, I'm currently working on an AJAX based script loader

Re: [JSMentors] Loading .js files dynamically

I think this is a general problem with JavaScript. We shouldn't use libraries to load JavaScript dynamically. JavaScript should do this by itself like other scripting languages. But the concept of loading scripts must be different, like should I load the script asynchron or synchron, should the scr

Re: [JSMentors] Loading .js files dynamically

Sorry, I've just realised this doesn't work, because it's not waiting for the script to load. Like Diego said, if you're going to do it this way then fire the callback on the onload event of the script. On 8 March 2011 12:12, Nick Morgan wrote: > A really basic fix would be: > > function loadScr

A really basic fix would be: function loadScript(url, callback) { var script = document.createElement('script'); script.src= url + "?r=" + Math.floor(Math.random()*1); script.setAttribute("charset", "UTF-8") document.querySelector('head').appendChild(script); if (typeof callback == 'funct

Thanks James I'll have a look at this - yeah I know it might not be "easy" but with fast modern JS VMs I would have thought it entirely possible to parse a "project" and generate JS map "view" of objects e.g. if it parsed my sample code above it would know that Widget is a global Object literal wit

[JSMentors] Re: client-side development environment

I think the auto complete is difficult due to the dynamic typing of javascript. The closest I have found in terms of auto complete is webstorm by jetbrains. The autocomplete / refactoring is pretty good and when it doesnt know for sure it presents you with a list to choose from :) -- To view
