Hyphenator and Prototype framework incompatibility about hyphenator HOT 9 CLOSED

Hi

I can't repoduce this issue.
Witch version of prototype did you use?
(See also: http://code.google.com/p/hyphenator/issues/detail?id=7&can=1)

thanks

I use the latest Prototype 1.6.0.3 and HyphenatorBeta10. The attached html 
reproduces
the issue.

Thanks for your reply.

Thanks

the attachment helped: I was able to reproduce the issue, but only on Firefox 
(OS X, 3.0.4) and Opera (OS X, 
9.60).
Safari (OS X, 3.2.1) and IE7 (XP) are working as exspected, here.

You are right, my formerly attached issue.zip works well in Safari 3.2.1 OSX 
and IE7
WinVista.

But, unfortunately, I am developing a rather complex html/css/js structure. 
Including
Hyphenator within this structure only works in Safari 3.2.1 OSX, but fails in 
all
other browsers (OSX: Firefox 3.0.4, WinVista: IE7/Firefox 3.0.4, WinXP: 
IE6/Opera
9.63). Sorry.

I see. The problem is the DOMContentLoaded-Event, I use. Prototype does 
something with this, too. But I did 
not completely understand what it does...

The same problem exists with other frameworks like jQuery.

I made a quick fix for prototype.js (Revision 250: 
http://hyphenator.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Hyphenator.js)
Nevertheless, I will have to rethink everything. I can't include an exception 
for every possible library.

Fantastic, thanks a lot, the fix works for me.
At the same time I'm sorry for you that you will have to modify the script.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

You're welcome!
There's nothing to be sorry about: I need these feedbacks to bring my script to 
perfection - and there will alway 
be something to modify...

Keep looking for updates.

Thanks so long,
Regards, Mathias

The issue isn't as difficult to solve as I thought:

The problem is the runOnContentLoaded-function I copied from 
http://javascript.nwbox.com/ContentLoaded/: It checks a var document.load, this 
var has been set by 
prototype, too.

I changed the runOnContentLoaded to store the information in a local var 
documentloaded, instead of global 
document.loaded.

I also created a testcase 
(http://hyphenator.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/testsuite/test28.html) to check the 
compatibility with jQuery and prototype.
Other frameworks will be tested later...

test28 is testing for compatibility of all libraries hosted by google 
(http://code.google.com/intl/de-
DE/apis/ajaxlibs/; as of 19.12.2008).
There is currently no incompatibility.
Therefore I mark this issue as fixed.
