MooTools 1.2 beta 2
Written By Valerio Proietti, on Wednesday, January 16th 2008, 8:48pmIts been almost 2 months since the first 1.2 beta. Bugs were fixed, features were improved, and here it comes: the second beta.
The first big feature we’ve been working on for 1.2 is Documentation.
1.2 Documentation is in fact almost 5 times more detailed than it was in version 1. Every class option has now its description, every method has a complete list of arguments along with description, type, and now every functionality comes with a code example — sometimes more than one. If you want to see it for yourself, here is the temporary link for the 1.2 beta documentation.
A lot of the new 1.2 features have now been refined. An example that I’d like to share with you now is the Element Accessors feature. This is completely new for 1.2, aimed at making it easier working with elements and their attributes, properties or “special attributes”. Continue reading for 1.2 code examples.
MooTools + AIR = Love
Written By Valerio Proietti, on Friday, October 26th 2007, 7:14pmToday I found a nice article on coderseye.com:
I spent a half hour tinkering around in Aptana, downloading MooTools 1.1, and setting up a few tests. The result is extremely pleasing. Not only is MooTools way better and easier to use than I remember, but it works out of the box with AIR.
That’s Very nice to know!
I personally haven’t yet tried MooTools in AIR extensively (i only did a few basic tests) but I’m definitely looking forward to creating something in the very near future. Maybe a downloader app? We’ll see!

Written By Valerio Proietti, on Monday, June 4th 2007, 10:30amToday we released MooTools version 1.11.
In this release we fixed a bunch of memory leaks issues, as well as some minor bugs around.
Other than some maintenance, we added the getText and setText Element methods, to help filling HTML Elements, Style tags and Script tags with text, and we added more details to the documentation.
This is a recommended update for all of you using MooTools 1.1.
