Forum: Rails Spinoffs (closed, excessive spam) Possible bug in scriptaculous v1.8.1

On IE7 I get 'Object does not support this action' for the line

      delete this.element._originallyAbsolute;

This is in dragdrop.js at line 410

sticking the following just before this line

    alert( this.element.tagName + "," +
this.element._originallyAbsolute );

and I get 'DIV,false'

If I change the line to

      this.element._originallyAbsolute =  null;

and everything seems to work fine. Obviously this is something IE
handles incorrectly, but is this a bug with scriptaculous, does
_originallyAbsolute really need to be deleted can't it just be set to
null, in fact looking through the code setting it to false should work
also.

This was fixed in a recent commit
