I applied the patch and it seemed to be working, but if you throw it an ASCII Hex code/value, like %50, it fails. Or not fail, but it converts it to its keyboard character equivalent, %50 = ‘P’

Mainly because of work. When the project began, Prototype best fitted our needs and we’re too far along to consider re-implementing. Not until version 2 at any rate.

Granted at one point the documentation (or lack thereof) was shockingly bad, but nowadays we are spoilt.

I’m not sure why you have a problem with the implementation as it’s a library like any other - code to the API and forget about it. When it doesn’t work as expected, file a bug.

As for the code, again I’m not sure what you mean. Could the problem you have be that it doesn’t look like Java?

why do you still bother using Prototype? it’s a real PITA from the code, implementation and to the documentation itself!

Comment on I hate bus drivers by Alex

So why shouldn’t the driver claim the moral high ground and be courteous to other road users, regardless of how badly the passengers they are carrying behave?
