Mootools classes have an initialize() method that's called when a new object is instantiated. It seems that setup() is a commonly used method as well. Most classes I've observed call this.setup() from initialize() and nowhere else, which has left me wondering: What's the purpose of setup()? Why not just put the setup() code in initial...

However, if the commented out alert(adjust) is uncommented, it produces the correct number on page load, but not on clicking. I was wondering why t...

Hi Guys, I have followed these instructions at Balupton to the word but I cannot seem to get this lightbox working. I managed to get this working on another Mambo project last year but I cannot get this working on Joomla and I was wondering if it could be that there is a clash between Moo Tools and jQuery. Although this should not be th...

Okay so like everything else IE8 is giving some serious problems. When trying to load MooTools into the browser IE8 just gives me a "A security problem occurred" error. I think it may have something to do with the clashing of files or something but I can't seem to figure it out. Here's a web address so you can see for yourself. http://w...
