Prototype.js and setStyle()
Internet Explorer 7 made a lot of trouble with the setStyle()-method provided by Prototype.js. in a forum handgestrickt found the hint not to use it as a DOM-element-method, but as a method of the Element-object. that worked for us.
this does not work (sometimes):
$('some_id').setStyle({
top: '10px',
left: '10px',
//..... more styles
});this works fine (always):
Element.setStyle($('some_id'),{
top: '10px',
left: '10px',
//..... more styles
});related:
