Gantry Mootools bug with ToolTips in Joomla 1.5

  • Gantry Mootools bug with ToolTips in Joomla 1.5

    Posted 13 years 6 months ago
    • With Gantry 3.1.17 (Modulus template) the standard Joomla tooltips do not load - there is a javascript error.

      If I edit the moo125.php features file and stop Gantry from replacing the Mootools 1.2.5 from Joomla with its own then the problem goes away. It therefore appears to be a problem in the gantry mootools 1.2.5 file.

      I'll ask my client to follow this thread so he can give you a URL to look at.

      thanks

    • wich Joomla version are you using? 1.5.23?

    • Joomla 1.5.23 with the mootools upgrade plugin enabled which is correctly loading mootools version 1.2.5 from plugins/system/myupgrade/mootools.js

      It would appear that even though the build version appear to be the same in the 2 files there is something different abuot these files. To confirm this I replaced components/com_ganrry/js/mootools-1.2.5.js with plugins/system/mtupgrade/mootools.js and the problem goes away.

    • In fact looking at the files closely the Joomla one has 119150 characters on the var MooTools line whereas the Gantry version has 122164 characters - so the 2 files are different.

      I then looked at them and see that the Joomla version has MooTools.More version 1.2.4.2 built in whereas the Gantry version is 1.2.5.1 - this could explain the difference but since you don't provide an uncompressed version of the mootools.more library its impossible to diagnose and find the cause of the problem.

      Is there a reason why you don't use the mootools upgrade plugin version?

      The problem we are having is with the core Joomla ToolTips - so any suggestions would be gratefully received.

    • I will pass that to Djamil since he is a Mootools core-member.
      Looks more like a Joomla bug to me. Joomla-core-team has been always slow with adapting code and bugfixes from Mootools. At least that is my impression. Just as an example take the time it took Joomla to ugrade Mootools 1.24 to 1.25 when 1.24 was not working in IE9.

      But let's see what Djamil says ...

    • hmmm Djamil tested the standard tooltips with gantry in J1.5 (with mootools upgrade) without issues.
      Perhaps you have some 3rd party stuff running?
      Perhaps you have a link ?
