Well, in theory it’s just.

 
Markstrom: Z1haze, you can probably do that with CSS

Providence: Good afternoon everybody! :

Markstrom: Https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/text-overflow

Quist: Z1haze, there is a responsive extension that may also help

Gadapee: Dash: but 1 why are you wrapping in the first place, if you don’t want to change semantics? 2 if you want to change semantics, why would you convert it back to something else? 3 is it even a good idea to convert back?

Kimberling: I think wrapping primitive types can often help build more robust software. e.g. the difference in c between struct something { int id; }; and typedef int something; is significant and the first is often better.

Adzhabakyan: But i dont like how it works in java or js

Quiller: Tcsc: well, I’d rather not have primitive types :

Greenler: And generally i dont think it’s worth the tradeoff of performance in managed language

Markstrom: Z1haze, that MDN link for text-overflow I pasted is a good resource

Birdow: Does anyone have a link that explains how AJAX calls are performed?

Drennon: Javascript is such a cluster**** to find real information on

Risi: Collin: by “AJAX” do you mean HTTP requests?

Thamphia: Can someone please help me with a math problem? I simply want to keep pressing equals and if the user decided to “add” which is “Operation 3 or Operation = 3”, then it will take the number in memory, and add it to the Current value, thus resulting in 3+3 = 6 + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12 + 3 = 15, etc. Can someone please help me fix this little code snippet?

Wildenberg: Http://pastebin.com/KiA1zgHr

Bissette: No, I mean when the request is sent/response is received

Suozzi: I.e. is the HTTP request sent as soon as the AJAX call is made, or does it send it later? When is the response read?

Savedra: Collin: that doesn’t really have anything to do with JavaScript. It works as defined in the HTTP protocol specification. Requests are sent as soon as you send them.

Ginolfi: Can someone please help me with a math problem?

Stele: I apologize, I’m new here.

Schilsky: I do not know the rules.

Danker: Mythros: give it a minute

Goettel: Mythros: you don’t need to repeat yourself

Talentino: Dekok: That’s not what I’m asking. I’m asking when the browser sends the HTTP request

Laboissonnier: Collin: how would you get a response to a request that hasn’t been sent?

Khatcherian: Collin: when you call the .send method in the object that does HTTP requests.

Carmain: Higuchi: I’m asking about implementation details

Stoecker: I’m not a web developer, I primarily do application servers in C++.

Ziolkowski: You have to send a request to get a response.

Elofson: I’m asking if the browser sends the actual request synchronously within the AJAX call

Prattella: Collin: this is the specification for the methods: https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/xhr/raw-file/tip/Overview.html. But really, “how it works” is the same as what’s specified in the HTTP protocol spec

Hurndon: Ajax is short for “asynchronous javascript and xml” fwiw

Nicola: Collin: I/O can’t be synchronous in the browser. It’s a single-threaded environment.

Bongiovanni: Collin: there used to be a synchronous flag for XHR, but it was removed because it was a really bad idea

Fraser: Right, but sending the request could be done synchronously

Weisz: Collin: not anymore, they removed that.

Woodliff: Well, in theory it’s just deprecated, but they’ll remove it eventually
