Released: MooTools 1.2.3

Posted on | June 19, 2009 | 1 Comment

I’m excited to tell you that MooTools 1.2.3 has been released today! It’s mainly bug fixes and updates. One major change is compatibility with other frameworks. Like the MooTools-Dev team, I do not advise using more than one framework. But if you have to.. then you have to. See below for a list of changes, straight from the cows mouth!

Core

  • Element: MooTools compatibility mode: the $ function is only defined if no pre-existing $ function is found. If an existing $ function is found, you can use document.id()
  • Element: changed internal instances of $ to document.id
  • Core: fix for server-side MS JScript 5.x; makes MooTools more friendly for server side programming
  • Class: Class doesn’t require Browser, removed from scripts.json
  • Element: Fixes for set/get Property
  • Element.Dimensions: fix for webkit body.scrollTop inconsistency, getBoundingClientRect used whenever possible (not just for Trident), renaming element.position to element.setPosition; adding docs for the method; alias is included in-line for compatibility
  • Hash: Hash extend no longer uses the window if no arguments supplied
  • Request: clearing Request readystate before calling success or failure;
  • Selectors: Added :enabled pseudoselector, was in the Docs but not implemented.
  • Docs: Fixed docs headers for first-child, last-child, and only-child.
  • Internal: UnitTester test suite is now a git submodule
  • Numerous small fixes, speed improvements, documentation tweaks, etc.

More

  • Per the change in -core, $ is no longer used (uses document.id instead)
  • Element.Measure: trying cssText solution for Element.expose (again).
  • Element.Forms: swapping feature detection for browser support per
  • Date: Massive refactoring of Date.js and Date.Extras.js
  • Drag.Move: Fixing drag with grid issues
  • IframeShim: altering zindex assignment in IframeShim to better ensure that it’s always underneath the shimmed element, updating Iframeshim’s empty document creation; fixes https issues in IE6
  • FormValidator: reworking formvalidator scroll-to logic to be a little more efficient
  • OverText: preventing overtext from focusing on inputs except when they are interacted with (so OverText.update() does not focus an input);now stops polling when elements are hidden (when polling is enabled)
  • Fx.Scroll: adding scrollIntoView method – scrolls an element so that it is completely visible; if below the view, scrolls down until it is at the bottom of the screen, if above, scrolls up until it is at the top.
  • JSONP: was calling (the deprecated) this.request instead of this.send during retries
  • URI: Adding set(‘data’, obj) to set
  • Assets: adding error callback for Assets.images
  • Tips: removing dependency for Element.Measure for Tips; updating CSS class name in OverText
  • Numerous small fixes, speed improvements, documentation tweaks, etc.

Great job MooTools-Dev team!
