MooTools 1.1 To 1.2 - Compatibility Layer
The MooTools-Team keeps working hard on the page and the requested missing features. The compatibility-layer for the 1.11 version is one of the frequent requests in the group, so I’ll provide them here for now:
- Core Compat-Script for 1.2 Core Download
- More Compat-Script for 1.2 More Download (contains only Fx.Scroll)
Browse them on github (or should we call it moohub?).
The compat scripts add the class and methodnames that have changed from 1.11 to 1.2. They also reflect several changed function arguments. MooTools 1.2 provides a powerful and consistent API, so I’ll continue my series on the changes that everybody can make the switch soon! I suggest to start reading them, to get an idea of the renamed classes and methods. Don’t trust these compat files implicitly, better convert your 1.11 scripts to 1.2 soon. We may update the compats for a more comprehensive 1.11 support, but 1.2 is the future-proof version!

the Element.getValue() is missing!

WTF, why all websites wrote that "better convert your 1.11 scripts to 1.2 soon" but no manual how-to-do-this!

thanks for this, i used the compatibilty layer all the way through 1.2 beta 1 to random trunk releases. Then the full release came out and it was gone! I thought I was going to be stuck with mootools-trunk-1544-compatible.js forever!

Honestly these files are pretty incomplete... not that I don't appreciate them : ) but they don't solve all the problems and in one case (the XHR class) are just plain wrong...
If anyone is interested I wrote a tutorial about upgrading and another compatibility file that solves a bunch of the problems with these files and brings backwards compatibility closer to 100%:

Also totally off topic, the Autocompleter and History Manager are awesome thanks!

Well done, it allow an instant compatibility for the useful calendar from "electricprism" that I'm using.
