Yeah, they fixed that. But (and this is just going off on a personal tangent here) I'm still not happy with anything that dumps methods all over the place. It can be harder to debug because it's got its fingers in so many classes, and -- when you're extending the builtins like Prototype does -- there's still the question of whether it can play nice with other code. I guess in a way it also feels a bit weird in what it does to the language; Prototype "feels" like someone's trying to make JavaScript be Ruby (just as MochiKit "feels" like someone's trying to make JavaScript be Python). I just want JavaScript to be JavaScript :) -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
