How to externalize scriptaculous javascript ?

Hello,

I'de like to externalize the Javascript of scriptaculous into external
.js files, in order to improve response time.
I copied all contents of SULibrary to several .js files.
In #updateRoot: of my component, I added the following code
(#javascriptPaths returns a collection of paths) :

CBOConfiguration javascriptPaths do:
                [:each | anHtmlRoot scriptElementWithSrc: each]

When I look at the generated source, I have correct <script> entries,
which give the same javasript code as when using the SULibrary.

However, I don't have the expected functionality. For example, the
updater is broken, my code on the server side is never called. If I
switch back to using "addLibrary: SULibrary" in #registerAsApplication,
it works again.

Does someone have a clue ?

Thanks


Vincent

I've done this myself to all the libraries here, but I also merged them
into a single file,

aHtmlRoot linkToScript: '/other/scriptaculous/all.js'

If your script fails when you do this, I would recommend installing
something like Firebug (which everyone should have anyway) and debug the
JavaScript errors that come up,

Hope this helps,

Thank you, it works just fine !

An interesting remark: removing all link to libraries (even the
WAStandardScripts library) and moving all scripts and CSS to static
files allowed me a x5 performance gain.
