Problems with prorotype (JavaScript)

[Euan T]

Actually, I've kind of almost figured this out. Kind of. I now have the event getting stopped and everything, I just need to make the effect work

Event.observe(window, 'load', function() {
	Event.observe('unreadAlerts_menu', 'click', function(e) {
		Event.stop(e);

		var popup_id = e.target.identify() + '_popup';
		Effect.toggle(popup_id, 'blind');
	});
});

Just checked the console and I'm seeing this:

ReferenceError: Effect is not defined

Does that mean that MyBB doesn't come with scriptaculous as I believed it did?

effects.js should be in the mybb package; I added it to headerinclude as I think it was not referred to anywhere.

[Euan T]

Yeah, it is in the package but isn't included. EIther way, I now have it running fine To use it all it takes is an edit to headerinclude to remove the jquery scripts and add this:

<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/jscripts/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/jscripts/myalerts.prototype.js"></script>

EXCELLENT. I just so happen to have that in my headerinclude already
