Hi all,
Can I have a ruby code inside a java script function written in .js file?
When I tried it, i got an error.
e.g. consider following function inside myscript.js file
myscript.js
function sayHi
{
<%name="xyz"%>;
alert(''HI <%=name%>'');
}
But this works if I have above function in a rhtml file inside <script>
tag.
Any inputs in this regard will be really helpful.
Thanks and Regards,
Medha.

no, you cannot have ruby code inside a standalone js file, as it is your browser that requests the file directly from the webserver. it is NOT being parsed/interpreted/executed on the server. when you put the ruby code into the rhtml template within <script> tags then that code IS being parsed as part of the template file.

You can''t have Ruby code within a .js file stored in the public directory, but you could generate a javascript file from a controller (this will require some disabling any layouts, etc.). Your HTML will probably need to reference the generated javascript "file" directly, rather than through Rails'' helper function. -faisal --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

You *can* put it in an *r*js file, just as you can in an *r*html file. add an action called myscript, a view called myscript.rjs and put a script tag into your rhtml file with src = /controller/myscript Alan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
