Comment on MooTools – It’s Worth It! by Constantine "c69" Vesna

MooTools aren’t that much harder than jQuery, and are way more javascripty.

jQuery docs are not very good either. Yes, there are many tutorials available on the net, but most of them focus on cheesy GUI effects, so they are effectively useless.

So instead of Bowser detection we need Framework detection now ?
Doesn’t sound nice.

ps: does it detect obfuscated and minified frameworks ?

Taras, thats interesting… What browser are you attempting to use it. I’ve had it running fine on Firefox and Safari since the release. Let me know! Thanks!

Somehow I couldn’t make it work consistently. Sometimes it was just no response.

Mike,

I would love to help you up and am hoping to release a new version of this in January 01, 2010. The demo is using the MooTools version thus the better display of fonts. MooTools rules.

Send me a link to the site of question and I’ll look at it.

Thanks for the kind words on the script. And cool gravatar… Where is everyone getting those?

Hi,

great little bit of coding. Dead easy to set up. One thing I have an issue with is the Jquery FadeIn cleartype bug. After the 1st quote, the cleartype is removed and the text looks awful.

I’ve found the fix, but am struggling to work out where to apply it. Having said that, your demo doesn’t seem to have that issue.

Any help would be great –

Cheers

Mike
