Re: [Moo] Re: Now that Joomla (3.0) has almost given up on Mootools, what will become of it ?

2013-03-13 Thread Sanford Whiteman
That's not to say it's better code (I don't think it is), but it's a more successful product in almost every way. I can't remember ever _celebrating my use_ of a product that has crappy internals when I know I'm using it just because most people do. There is nothing, absolutely nothing to

Re: [Moo] Creating a new Element and setting html should not load images from the html.

2013-02-21 Thread Sanford Whiteman
If you Element.set('text',...), the string will be HTML-escaped (corresponds to native innerText). It sort of sounds like you want to parse the response as (X|HT)ML before injecting it into the DOM, rather than escaping the markup tags. You can do this, with some cross-browser quirks, by

Carl, you really, really, really need to get in touch with the notion of relative paths, including scripts etc. You can't just go dumping in script tags, img srcs, CSS background-images, etc. that are all 404 errors. I have just now gotten the Fiddle into a more workable state; the slideshow is

Nice solutions; I think the one with the delay is the keeper. Even better would be exponential backoff delays. @rlk27, it's not fair to client nor server to fire requests in a tight loop (no delay). If your server routinely fails and recovers within the same second, there's something much worse

Yes you are right. There always should be a delay, but I just wanted to make clear the point how it's done and doesn't provide a perfect solution :) Sorry, didn't mean to critique. More @rlk27, I wanted to point out how important the delay is, because if you choose to machine-gun a server
