Extending Prototype

Here are two must-read articles on extending Prototype—here we go:

• Writing Custom Iterators For Prototype shows how to use the addMethods method of Prototype’s Element object and the comments include a nice $w() method akin to Ruby’s %w() shortcut for creating arrays
• The DOM Ready Extension for Prototype adds a nice Event.onDOMReady() method (also see this)

Nice to see this great stuff popping up everywhere—please don’t stop. 🙂
