Anyone experience any issues using Prototype 1.6.0 and Rico 2.0 beta 3?

Yes,

I have found 2 issues:

1) Prototype 1.6 has a bug when converting a Hash to a query string.
Fortunately, it is easy to work around, just change 2 lines in
ricoLiveGridAjax.js:

from:
     return $H(queryHash);

to:
     return queryHash;

from:
Rico.writeDebugMsg('req '+this.requestCount+':'+
this.ajaxOptions.parameters.inspect());

to:
Rico.writeDebugMsg('sending ajax req #'+this.requestCount);

This change is also compatible with older versions of Prototype.


2) Prototype 1.6's implementation of "dom:loaded" is broken on Internet
Explorer. Unfortunately, there is no way to change a few lines of Rico
to work around this bug, but there is a ticket already created for
tracking it (http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10139). A code fix is
included in the ticket description and I have verified that it works
with Rico (requires changing prototype.js).

Therefore, I would recommend waiting until version 1.6.1 before
upgrading your Prototype library.

I can confirm that this has fix has worked thanks.  While I would love 
to avoid upgrading, there is a bug with Form.serialize() in previous 
versions of Prototype that we need fixed.

Thanks for the help.

So, will the SVN include a patched version of Prototype 1.6?

I have a strong preference for letting Sam Stephenson manage Prototype 
releases. What Richard Cowin and I have discussed (briefly) is releasing 
Rico 2.0 with Prototype 1.5.1 and planning a later Rico 2.1 release with 
Prototype 1.6.x. If Sam releases a 1.6.1 version quickly, I would be 
willing to include it in Rico 2.0.

Comments? Suggestions?

Matt

My only concern is that other libraries such as scriptaculous have 
already begun depending on Prototype 1.6.

The latest version in SVN now contains a patched version of Prototype 
1.6.

Please note that Prototype 1.6 also breaks Rico accordions on Opera. The 
version in SVN contains a patch for that too.

Please give the latest SVN version a try and post back here if you find 
any other issues.

Thanks,

Matt
