== script.aculo.us web 2.0 javascript
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Web is changing. The 30-year-old terminal-like technology it was originally
|
||
|
|
is gradually giving way to new ways of doing things. The power of AJAX allows
|
||
|
|
for rich user interaction without the trouble that has bugged traditional
|
||
|
|
web applications.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Building upon the wonderful Prototype JavaScript library, script.aculo.us
|
||
|
|
provides you with some great additional ingredients to mix in.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For more information, see http://script.aculo.us/

== What's new in this release?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the CHANGELOG file for information on what's new.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== Installation/Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
script.aculo.us includes the Prototype JavaScript Framework
|
||
|
|
V1.5.0. You can use later versions, as they become available
|
||
|
|
(see http://prototype.conio.net).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Put prototype.js, and the six files scriptaculous.js,
|
||
|
|
builder.js, effects.js, dragdrop.js, controls.js and slider.js
|
||
|
|
in a directory of your website, e.g. /javascripts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(The unittest.js file is optional and is only needed if you
|
||
|
|
want to do unit testing on your own javascripts).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now, you can include the scripts by adding the following
|
||
|
|
tags to the HEAD section of your HTML pages:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<script src="/javascripts/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
|
||
|
|
<script src="/javascripts/scriptaculous.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
scriptaculous.js will automatically load the other files of the
|
||
|
|
script.aculo.us distribution in, provided they are accessible
|
||
|
|
via the same path.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See http://wiki.script.aculo.us/scriptaculous/show/Usage for detailed
|
||
|
|
usage instructions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
== The distribution
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Besides the script.aculo.us files in src, there's a complete
|
||
|
|
test tree included which holds functional and unit tests for
|
||
|
|
script.aculo.us.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you need examples on how to implement things, the best place to
|
||
|
|
start is by opening test/run_functional_tests.html or
|
||
|
|
test/run_unit_tests.html in your browser, and looking at
|
||
|
|
the sources of the examples provided.
