similar to: link_to_remote v. text_field?

Hi! I''m having trouble with the following thing: I have a view with a text_field. What I want is to call a remote method with the value of the text_field as the :id I supply to link_to_remote. How do I do this? It''s about an empty form, so the text_field doesn''t have a value when the page is loaded. Grtz, Wouter -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am trying to pass the result from a javascript function along with the result from a text_field with form_remote_tag. This is what I have so far, but no go: <% form_remote_tag(:url => {:controller => ''requests'', :action => ''create''}, :with => "''data=''+request()", :update => ''request_sent'' )

I see in the document for form_remote_tag a little note about Javascript: A "fall-through" target for browsers that doesn?t do JavaScript can be specified with the :action/:method options on :html Which works by populating the ACTION html field for the form with a real URL, not a "#". Great. Can this be done with link_to_remote as well? I see no similar note in the

i have lots of divs, which are added via link_to_remote. now i want to delete them with a link_to_remote button for each. i am giving them ids with the same name and a serialized number. when trying to access them with javascript/rjs, strange things happen: "RJS Error: TypeError: $(element) has no properties?. is this a rails, rjs or prototype bug? or am i missing something? see my code

Ok, so I am basically trying to use ''link_to_remote'' and pass the value of a javascript variable as an argument. Something like that: link_to_remote "my_link", :update => ''my_div'', :url => { :action => "my_action", :var => ''my_var'' } Basically,

Hi all, I have tracked an odd behavior down to what I think is an issue of scope. In short, when I use form_remote_tag to establish an AJAX form, my database fields don''t get populated when performing an edit on the record. Those same fields will get populated using start_form_tag and no AJAX. I think that Ruby can''t find the local object that represents the database

Hello, I''m trying to create a form that will allow a user to submit a list of phone numbers, but the list is dynamically created. Thus allowing my form to submit an unknown number of phone numbers. Here is some of the code I have been trying: <%= collection_select( "phone[]", "phone_type_id", PhoneType.find(:all, :order => "position"),

Hello, I''m in troubles trying to use ''link_to_remote'' on Rails 2.1. Having this page: <h4>Editing project</h4> <% form_for(:project, :url => project_path(@project), :html => { :method => :put }) do |f| %> <p> Name <%= f.text_field :name %> Date <%= calendar_date_select :project, :target_date, :time =>

After looking at the link_to_remote tag for the first time, I found it broke when javascript was disabled. Below is one possible solution I found and would like to suggest that this idea is promoted into rails. # # provide fix for link_to_remote tag when javascript is not enabled def link_to_remote_fix(text, options) link_to_remote text, options, :href => url_for(

I have a table that lists domain names, with a form next to it to add new domains. I have AJAXified this so that new domains are immediately added as table rows. This works fine in Firefox 1.5/Win, but not in IE6/Win. Domains are added into the database, but the HTML table is not updated unless you reload the page. Some googling tells me there are issues with e.g. link_to_remote updating

Hi all, I''ve been trying to figure this out by myself and while I feel I''ve made some progress, I feel kind of stuck. Let me see if I can explain what I''m trying to do. I have a very simple form with a text box and a text area. The text in each of these will eventually make it into a row in a table in my database. For now, the value in the text box represents a

All, I want to do an AJAX request using a custom image button. I currently have this as a standard button action using "button_to". What I need is the button equivalent of "link_to_remote". Is there a helper that I can use, or do I need to build it by hand? I see button_to_function(), but that sets me up to call a Javascript function, not post to a Rails action. Or can

link_to_remote generates the javascript: new Ajax.Updater(...). Have I missed something or doesn''t this handle browsers with javascript support but without XHR support? What I''d like to do is: 1. If the browser supports XHR, use XHR 2. If the browser supports javascript (and perhaps even if the XHR request fails) do a POST via javascript 3. If the browser doesn''t

Cheers, I have a form with an input inside that I want to be able to submit by itself (I want to let the user create new tags with this input and use them to tag the whole content that is posted by the rest of the form). I have this layout: <form ...> <input type="text" id="new_tag" /> <%= link_to_remote "Schlüsselwort hinzufügen",:url => {

Hi all, I would like to get one of the parameters for a link_to_remote with JavaScript prompt. So far I have this: link_to_remote(image_tag("/images/interface/add.png"), :before => "$name = prompt(''Name?'')", :url => { :action => ''add_child'', :id => node, :name => XXX }, :update =>

Easy solution. I am using the behaviour.js package. Using this, the solution was to apply a Behaviour.apply(); command when the XMLHttpRequest() is complete. So my solution was to use the form_remote_tag properties to help me call this like such: link_to_remote("questions", :url => { :action => ''curator_questions'', :uid => curator.id, :tid =>

Sorry for the long explanation but I''m having trouble integrating rjs into my form page. Here''s my page: <div id="posts"> <ul id="post_list"><%= render :partial => ''list_results'', :collection => @posts %></ul> <p><%= link_to_remote(''+'', :url => {:action =>

I''m on rails edge and am calling an after filter on my actions. Works except for my ajax calls via link_to_remote. When I inspect headers, I see the ''Content-Type'' is key for an object rather than a string. Shouldn''t it be a string? Anyone know if this is a bug or if I''m dealing with this incorrectly. Thanks, Jamie The code: after_filter
