MooTools More 1.2.2.2
Written By Aaron Newton, on Tuesday, May 5th 2009, 5:51pmToday we’re releasing a small update to MooTools More that address a few bugs and minor feature requests that cropped up after the initial launch. Briefly, these are the things changed since 1.2.2.1:
- Removed debug statement that enabled IframeShim in all browsers by default
- Fixed a few docs typos
- Removed UTF-8 charset signature on String.QueryString and URI.Relative
- Assets.image now have an onError option and handle image load failure more gracefully
- FormValidator.Inline had issues displaying some of it’s validators when input values changed
- OverText now allows you to specify the element type for the label test (defaults to “label”)
- Fixed an issue with addRequests in Request.Queue; the arguments were reversed (addQueue still worked fine though)
None of these changes should affect your usage of the class, except, possibly, the change to OverText, as the element it previously created for the labels was a div. If you styled these with css and referenced the tag name, you’ll either need to update your css reference or pass in element: “div” as an option when you invoke the class.

The string generated by get(‘html’), has variants depending of the browser, there will be any chance to add a property xhtml, containing xhtml well-formed? something like Steve Trucker use on his site (http://www.stevetucker.co.uk/page-innerxhtml.php). I have implemented this feature extending element class, but I think it would be nice to be included in the core of MooTools.

@Alograg Interesting. We’ll have to give it some thought, but we’ll consider it. Thanks for the feedback.

Sorry for a completely unrelated comment, just wanted to let you guys know that http://www.formula1.com utilizes MooTools - in my humble opinion it’s a site worth mentioning on the front page here. Regards.
