I am having a problem in Firefox. It works fine in IE. I am trying to update a div using the Ajax.Updater. The problem is that I have a hidden field called ascOrDesc. This field is set to "Asc" when it is first loaded. Then I have a sort link that calls the code below. The first time I click the link it sends "Asc" to the server the value is then toggled to "Desc". When the page is sent back I can inspect it with FireBug to confirm the field was changed to "Desc". I also used a hidden field called ajaxTimeStamp to prevent browser cache of the request. However, the next time I click the link the alert shows the old value for the ascOrDesc field and the new value for the timestamp. Again this only happens in Firefox not IE. Below is a brief sequence of the problem. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this symptom in Firefox and how to fix it. Thanks, Rich ----- SEQUENCE ----- - click - First alert: ascOrDesc=Asc&sortAttribute=lastName&ajaxTimeStamp=1194639270531 - server toggles value to "Desc" - the hidden field in the div is updated to "Desc" - click - Second alert: ascOrDesc=Asc&sortAttribute=lastName&ajaxTimeStamp=1194639655843 ----- CODE SAMPLE ----- function ajaxSortOn(url,divId,form,attribute) { form.sortAttribute.value = attribute; form.ajaxTimeStamp.value = new Date().getTime(); alert($(form).serialize()); updateInnerHtml(url, $(form).serialize(), divId); } function updateInnerHtml(url, params, updateId) { new Ajax.Updater(updateId, url, { asynchronous: true, method: "get", parameters: params, onFailure: function(request) { alert(request.responseText); } }); } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
