Forum: Rails Spinoffs (closed, excessive spam) Prototype 1.6.0.2 + Opera 9.50 + document.viewport.getDimensions();

Hi,

It seems like document.viewport.getDimensions() reports the entire
page size rather than the viewport on my Opera 9.50.
document.viewport.getDimensions() works as expected on IE6-7, FF2-3
etc. Could anyone confirm this?

Best regards,
Marcus

I noticed the same behavior and patched my copy of the prototype.js
file:
...
document.viewport = {
  getDimensions: function() {
    var dimensions = { };
    var B = Prototype.Browser;
    $w('width height').each(function(d) {
      var D = d.capitalize();
      dimensions[d] = (B.WebKit && !document.evaluate) ? self['inner'
+ D] :
          (B.Opera && parseFloat(opera.version)<9.5) ?
document.body['client' + D]) : document.documentElement['client' + D];
          document.documentElement['client' + D];
    });
    return dimensions;
  },
...

The original code has:
    (B.Opera)
as the condition, which I changed to:
    (B.Opera && parseFloat(opera.version)<9.5)

Regards,

Johan

This has been patched for the next release (1.6.0.3) :)
