Question

Im trying to fix some old mootools script, in Internet Explorer 9, Firefox Array.append works just fine

ar ewls = document.getElements('a');
var lol = [];
lol.append(ewls);

But in IE8 im geting this error in the console
“SCRIPT5028: Function.prototype.apply: oczekiwano obiektu tablicy lub argumentów” (expected array or arguments)

Answer 1

er. Array.append? lol = []; lol.push(ewls);

you ought to consider a collection. you have a data type mismatch. merging a collection with a static array won’t work. var lol = new Elements(); – it’s like an array only with element protos as well. then lol.append(ewels);

var ewls = document.getElements('a');
var lol = new Elements();

lol.append(ewls);
lol.length; // 5

keep in mind the append is from 1.3+ – in 1.2 it was Array.extend
