similar to: changing visual_effect defaults

I was going to change the background of a div from white to red and then from red back to white, so this is used in an RJS file: page[:vote_score].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => ''#ffffff'', :endcolor => ''#ffcccc'' page[:vote_score].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => ''#ffcccc'', :endcolor =>

Mike and I demo an Ajaxified version of the Depot application in the Rails Studio. Part of the demo is a cart in the sidebar which updates when you add a product to it. As well as updating the div, it also highlights the most recently added link item. Right now, we do it with: <script language="JavaScript"> function flash_cart(request) { var id =

In my RJS template this works: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5} but not this: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5, :startcolor => "#FFFFFF"} Am I misunderstanding how to pass in additional parameters? _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

I have some code that will do the highlight, fade effect on a block of text. It seems to work just fine until it is fired multiple times very rapidly. The end color matches a grey background and the start color is a yellow. Say its run 4 times a second for 3-5 seconds. When the flashing catches up the text will fade for the last time to the end color, then the background will switch to a

I have made a sortable list which is sortable by dragging & dropping the list elements. It works, but the order of the elements will not be updated in the database. Hopefully someone could help me, or tell me what I''m doing wrong. Thnx! Rgds, Eric Controller: album_controller.rb class AlbumController < ApplicationController def show_sort_album @photos =

i''ve just installed the RJS plugin per cody''s instructiuons and read through tutorials. I''ve made the necessary changes to my existing code and everything appears to be working, except that the returned javascript is not being evaluated... here''s my setup: i have a checkbox with an onclick event pointing to a javascript function. this javascript function does

I''m trying to implement a remove from cart method based on the examples in the second edition Agile book. I have everything working except for the RJS that removes items from the cart. Ideally what I''d like to do is highlight an element that I am deleting only if there is more than one of that particular item in the cart. If the item deleted is the only of

This is my code: <%= form_remote_tag :url => { :action => "forgot_account" }, :update => "result", :complete => visual_effect(:highlight, "result", :duration => 2, :startcolor => "#c8e673", :endcolor => "#9db55d") %> If I remove colors to the effect everything works, but with this code it renders on another

i am trying to use a sortable list on my app. i used the chapter in Rails recipes as a reference on how to do it. i have the following code in my controllerr: def sort @user_list = User.find(params[:id]) @user_list.tasks.each do |task| task.position = params[''user-list''].index(task.id) + 1 task.save end render :nothing => true end and in my

Hi I had ajax commenting on my app, which worked perfectly on Rails v1.2.6, but does not work the same in Rails 2.02. Basically the comment gets added, but the visual effects do not work (ie lines 2 + 3 of create.rjs) create.js page.insert_html :bottom, ''comments'', :partial => ''comment'' page.visual_effect :appear, "comment_#{@comment.id}"

Hi, I''m trying to convert an older Rails application to use Ajax. I''ve already moved my edit and show actions so that, instead of displaying as separate pages, they appear in a <div> on my list view. However, I have two problems: 1) When the user saves the changes, I want to put all the ajax changes in an RJS template. However, form_remote_tag :url =>{:action =>

Hi all, I just upgraded a half baked app to RC2 and found a problem with passing parameters to the visual_effect method, particularly :enddcolor and :startcolor. Firebug does not report any error but the method just fails silently. If i remove the parameters, the method works just fine albeit with the default colors. Has anyone else found this problem?

I have a user defined list of items. Using the sortable_element function, I can manipulate the ordering of this list fine by dragging each component around. When I dynamically add another <li> item to this list, the newly added item is _not_ "draggable" like its other siblings. Using the sortable_element function, how do I make it aware of newly added list items? Here is my

Hi, Problem Summary: I have been trying to add the highlight effect to my table but everytime a new record is added the highlighting gives an rjs error. However when i click the add to cart button on a product that already exists inside the table, the highlight effect works. Is this because the partial must only have only one <tr></tr> in it and the <table> must be on the other

Folks, It has been a whole day spent on this but I still can''t get my mind around the most probably very stupid/basic mistake here... First, the code I use: <h3>List A</h3> <ul id="lista" > <li id="item1"> Item 1</li> <li id="item2"> Item 2</li> <li id="item3"> Item 3</li> </ul>

Is there a way to toggle an effect in an RJS? If not, anyone have recommendations for how to manually make it toggle? I guess I would assume some boolean that the rjs checks everytime it''s called and depending on whether it''s true or false it will do page.visual_effect :appear or page.visual_effect :hide -Ben Lisbakken -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

When a ''draggable'' element is made ''sortable'', it no longer follows the mouse horizontally when you drag it. Is there a solution/workaround? TIA Alain

I just upgraded Ruby to 1.8.4 and Rails to 1.1 and I''m in the middle of changing my Javascript code over to the Scriptaculous helper functions. page.visual_effect :highlight, "some_div" seems to be broken. Instead of fading, the background color of the element stays highlighted. page.visual_effect works for other effects, though. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via

Is there an easy way to change to color of the :highlight effect? :complete => visual_effect(:highlight, "targetid", :duration => 1) thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I''ve got a real head-scratcher. I''ve got a standard Ajax form using form_remote_tag, which calls a controller action which adds a comment and then sends back some JS via RJS which updates a few items on the page. It did work fine but (and I''ve no idea what has happened) now it doesn''t. It calls the controller action but gets an empty response back and
