Ruby Forum Rails Spinoffs (closed, excessive spam) > Problem with element.hide

Hi,
I have been using Ajaxautocomplete control.js. I am facing problem in
this piece of code.

 this.observer = null;

    this.element.setAttribute('autocomplete','off');

    Element.hide(this.update);

    Event.observe(this.element, 'blur',
this.onBlur.bindAsEventListener(this));
    Event.observe(this.element, 'keypress',
this.onKeyPress.bindAsEventListener(this));

I am using Firefox version2. It is not trigging the autocomplete data
and it is giving javascript error at Element.hide(this.update). I am
using firebug for javascript debugging.

Please help.
Thanks in advance
Ashwini

Sorry, but there's absolutely no sense of context here.  This is a 
Firebug
dump of scriptaculous libraries, without your own HTML or JS code.  Can 
you
please provide the code you're using to make this work?

Hi,

Indeed, more detailed info would be helpful.

FYI:  We're moving from this group to the new Prototype &
script.aculo.us group:

http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-scriptaculous
prototype-scriptaculous@googlegroups.com

Although people are still answering here (for now), it's best to start
new threads over there instead.  We plan to stop replying to new
threads in this group 'round about 15th of July.

This sort of problem usually occurs in my experience when you have
called 'new Ajax.Autocomplete' on a DOM object that doesn't (yet)
exist. Make sure that you have already added the 'update' element to
the DOM before calling the autocompleter.
