still alive? replied by blepore @ Wed, 19 Nov 2008 14:48:40 -0000

Is this project still alive? There haven’t been any changes in Github since July. There is no one on the IRC channel last I checked.

I’m really curious about this project. In particular the Window portion. I am currently using the Prototype Window Class, and see that this is supposed to be the next release. The current version behaves very poorly in IE with Prototype 1.6, and I was looking forward to better support so that I could remove all of the work arounds that I have implemented.

Shadow to block? replied by braulio @ Mon, 20 Oct 2008 23:04:45 -0000

Actually a Shadow adds a shadow around a DOM element. I needed a shadow with a message over the body. I used the Window object to create a blocker like BlockUI.

I created the blocker like this:

blocker = new UI.Window({shadow: true, close: false, minimize: false, maximize: false, height:120, width: 300, resizable: false, draggable: false});
blocker.setContent('&lt;h1&gt;&lt;img src="busy.gif" /&gt; Just a moment...&lt;/h1&gt;');
blocker.show(true).focus();
blocker.center();

Then, you can unblock the page like this:

blocker.hide();
blocker.destroy;

I was already using Prototype… If not I would have used JQuery.

Hope this will help someone…

Regards,

Hello.

Is it possible to block an entire page with Shadow UI.Shadow? Would it be possible to have a progress icon over the shadow? Is there an example somewhere of this?

Best regards,

did you try to change to the prototypeui directory and just call “rake dist” – than it should find the rake file by itself and also the test directory

Hello all!
I’ve just downloaded Prototype-UI from GIT. When I try to run some of the test files I get some errors:

1. document.whenReady is not a function and when I replace it with document.observe(‘dom:loaded’, XXXXXXX); I get this:
2. UI is not defined

how to fix them?

btw: In my project I use Window.js (downloaded from the main page) without problems….

Pack and compress all files replied by starpeak @ Tue, 27 May 2008 12:43:04 -0000

i used it in a rails 1.2 projekt – but i’m didn’t need a css url rewrite there. So I’m not sure if that would be done by asset_packager. But I think I would use it as base or at least inspiration for an own packager in rails.

One thing i don’t like about asset_packager is the needed rake for creating the packed assets. I more like the way rails 2 does the task transparently.

Sure
First, pdoc site itself: http://pdoc.org and http://pdoc.org/documentation.html
The idea at the beginning is to create .pdoc file to write doc (I did some docmentation.pdoc). Like this we keep the correct doc generation working.

Later, I will create a branch for that

There is a rake task to generate pdoc

rake -f Rakefile.pdoc pdoc

Pdoc is included as a submodule to prototypeUI so juste do

git submodule init
git submodule update

To install it.

i think it would be more a rails 2.2 push ;) i think until then i would build a plugin

should be a possible task as i have it already got solved in php.

the only problem is that i still got no solution for the cloning problem and neither for the time compression, so i could not say when that would be done :)

Right, would be good to have rails supporting compression for cached files.
If you feel like running for a great patch, that’s the right time as rails 2.1 should come out soon, so patches should be send really soon and pushed to be in ;-)

If you can get the CSS cache issue regarding relative linked image as well that would be simply fantastic.

Hope to see you posting the patch to be included in 2.1 ;-)

The :cache option seems to be missing a compressor – that should be fixed in a future release of rails.
Also it cannot compress the css as it looses the relativly linked images. My PHP Framework can handle both issues. Perhaps I should write a rail plugin that does both the same way.

Sure that’s great for merging them all together but asset_packager also minify them so brings the weight even lower. if I remember well even if you use gzip after it.

On Rails 2 you could just use the :cache option on stylesheet_link_tag or javascript_include_tag.

For the one using Ruby on Rails I would recommend asset_packager It merge and minify files in production while keeping them separated for development to provide easy debugging.
Used with GZip it provide a real weight / speed improvement.

On spare time I would appreciate to contribute on this.

Do you have some links / tips on how pdoc works and what do you expect to be done.
