Enhancing Rails' built in Javascript Effects

Rails has an extensive javascript library that has all kinds of helpers for ajax and dhtml built on Prototype. Prototype features a unique easy-to-use tooklit for class-driven developement. It also has a nicer to use Ajax library that I have played with (which includes DoJo). The only problem is that Prototype is lacking some nice dhtml javascript effects that we where looking for.

Enter stage right, Scriptaculous. Scriptaculous is an built on top of prototype and so it easly integrates with rails applications. Scriptaculous provides and animation framework, drag and drop, Ajax controls, DOM utilities, and unit testing. 

We hope to be able to use Scriptaculous to it's full potential to help enhance the user experience of Arora and all future products.
