*SVN* * Optimize document.getElementsByClassName and finalize DOM performance optimization refactoring. Closes #6696. [Mislav Marohnić] * Fix an issue with serializing empty array inputs. Closes #7516. [stakadush, Mislav Marohnić] * Add optional third parameter "camelized" to Element.setStyle, for optimized performance if style names are known to be camelCased. [Thomas Fuchs] * Fix a bug in the simulated hasAttribute for IE due to getAttributeNode sometimes returning null. [sam] * Optimize Element.getStyle and add new Element.getOpacity method. Special case IE and Opera getStyle methods. Closes #7648. [Tobie Langel, Thomas Fuchs] * Optimize Element.setStyle and add new Element.setOpacity method, special case IE and Gecko opacity methods. Closes #7585. [savetheclocktower] * Add unified Browser detection by providing Prototype.Browser.(IE|Gecko|WebKit|Opera) booleans. Closes #6800. [savetheclocktower] * Add String.prototype.empty and String.prototype.blank (tests if empty or whitespace-only). Closes #7016. [Jonathan Viney, Thomas Fuchs] * Update README to reflect new URLs, update LICENSE copyright years. Closes #7426. [Tobie Langel] * Array.prototype.uniq optimization. Closes #7417. [Christophe Porteneuve] * String.prototype.endsWith should not fail on multiple occurrences. Closes #7416. [Christophe Porteneuve] * Add Form.Methods.request as a convenience method for serializing and submitting a form via Ajax.Request to the URL in the form's action attribute. [sam] Options passed to request() are intelligently merged with the underlying Ajax.Request options: - If the form has a method attribute, its value is used for the Ajax.Request method option. If a method option is passed to request(), it takes precedence over the form's method attribute. If neither is specified, method defaults to "post". - Key/value pairs specified in the parameters option (either as a query string or as a hash) will be merged with (and take precedence over) the serialized form parameters. * Fix $(form).serialize() in Safari and add support for extending specific tags to Element.addMethods. Closes #7358. [Andrew Dupont] * Add String.prototype.startsWith, String.prototype.endsWith, and String.prototype.include. Closes #7075. [Tobie Langel] * Improve performance of String.prototype.escapeHTML by using a cached div and text node. Closes #6937. [altblue] * Make setStyle() with opacity: 0 in Internet Explorer work correctly. [Thomas Fuchs] * Form.Element.activate shouldn't raise an exception when the form or field is hidden. [sam] * Remove support for "throw $continue" in Enumerable. Use "return" instead. [sam] * Update HEADER to reflect new URL. [sam] *1.5.0* (January 18, 2007) * Add test to ensure Content-type header is set for simulated verbs. [sam] * Fix Content-Type header for HTTP methods simulated with POST not defaulting to application/x-www-form-urlencoded. [Thomas Fuchs] * Simplify form serialization and add support for fields with the same name as Hash methods. Closes #6649. [Mislav Marohnić] * Fix attribute selectors for IE. Closes #5170. [Tobie Langel, Andrew Dupont] * A slew of dom.js improvements. Closes #4217, #6589, #7001. [Tobie] - Fix Element.getDimensions() for hidden elements, make Element.getHeight() use .getDimensions() - Add Element.getWidth() - Make Element.replace() call .toString() on the html argument (alike .update()) - Fix an issue with Element.get/setStyle() and Safari with 'float' - Add a bunch of missing unit tests * Fix an issue with Element.setStyle({opacity:''}) setting the opacity to 0 instead of removing the set inline opacity style. [Thomas Fuchs] * Ensure Ajax.Request's evalResponse is called before onComplete so that onComplete can reference any elements created during the response. Closes #6727. [jonathan] * Ensure the WEBrick test runner sets the correct Content-Type for tests and fixtures. [sam] * Form.serialize once again works with non-form elements. This is a temporary change to prevent the Rails link_to_remote regression described in #6898. Prototype 1.5.1 will introduce an API for working with collections of arbitrary form elements. References #6887. Closes #6898. [sam] * Make selectors match forms that have an element with name="id" correctly, fixes #5759 [mislav] * Remove support for HTTP authorization in Ajax calls introduced with #6366.

Closes #5115. [Sean Kleinjung, sam] * Add Element.Methods.readAttribute as a simple wrapper around getAttribute (which isn't a "real" function and doesn't have .apply or .call in Safari and IE). Useful in conjunction with Enumerable.invoke for extracting the values of a custom attribute from a collection of elements. [sam] Example:
...
...
...
$$('div.widget').invoke('readAttribute', 'widget_id') // ["7", "8", "9"] * Add Element.Methods.immediateDescendants, like $A($(element).childNodes) but without text nodes. [sam] * More consistency.

[mislav, altblue, L`OcuS] * Fix Form.serialize for options with empty values. Closes #5033. [tdd, Thomas Fuchs, sam] * Add Element.Methods.Simulated for simulating HTMLElement methods in lesser browsers. Add hasAttribute as the first simulated method. [tdd, Thomas Fuchs, sam] * Add a "retry with throw" button for test error messages. [sam] * rake test now runs test/unit/*.html by default. Additionally, you can specify individual tests to run with the TESTS environment variable, and you can restrict the tests to particular browsers using the BROWSERS environment variable. [sam] Examples: % BROWSERS=safari,firefox rake test % TESTS=dom rake test * Element.hasClassName now bypasses the Element.ClassNames API for performance. [sam] * Pick some low-hanging performance and DRYness fruit. [sam] - Inline length property accesses in for loops - Enumerable-ize for loops where it makes sense - Make better use of Element.Methods and Form.Methods/Form.Element.Methods * A slew of Ajax improvements. Closes #6366. [mislav, sam] Public-facing changes include: - HTTP method can be specified in either lowercase or uppercase, and uppercase is always used when opening the XHR connection - Added 'encoding' option (for POST) with a default of 'UTF-8' - Ajax.Request now recognizes all the JavaScript MIME types we're aware of - PUT body support with the 'postBody' option - HTTP authentication support with the 'username' and 'password' options - Query parameters can be passed as a string or as a hash - Fixed both String.toQueryParams and Hash.toQueryString when handling empty values - Request headers can now be specified as a hash with the 'requestHeaders' option * Improve performance of the common case where $ is called with a single argument.
