Hello, I have been trying to use ajax and rails for a drop down list and I can''t seem to get it to work. This is what I am looking for, I have a drop down list, and as soon as the user selects an option, I want it to dissapear and make my content between the div I specified appear on the form. I have like 3 different divs with different content in them for each drop down item. I have tried to do it with RJS and declaring my own javascript functions but I can''t seem to get it to work. Any help would be appreciated please?

Is this how you''re trying to get the value returned when the user makes a selection? Cause it ain''t the way to do it. Post the relevant code from the view that generates the request, the controller method that gets invoked, and the RJS template. Then we can give you some guidance. Have you worked with RJS before? If not, I highly recommend Cody Fauser''s PDF at O''Reilly: "RJS Templates". It''s $10 you''ll be glad you spent.

Hi Matthew, No offense intended, but after seeing your code I think you ought to work through a basic tutorial or two to get your arms around Rails'' basics before you tackle RJS. The cookbook tutorial at O''Reilly that Curt and I did is pretty much up to date. It''s at http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2006/12/14/revisiting-ruby-on-rails-revisited.html?page=1 Best regards, Bill --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hello, I am working on a form to insert multiple items in different
tables here is the code I have:
class ClientController < ApplicationController
scaffold :client
def index
if params[:letter]
cond = params[:letter] + "%"
@letter = params[:letter]
@clients = Client.find :all, :conditions => ["firstname like
?" ,
cond], :order => "firstname ASC"
else
@clients = Client.find_all
@consoles = Console.find_all
@latestclients = Client.find :all, :conditions=> "isTested =
1",
:order => "dateReg DESC LIMIT 5"
@latestconsoles = Console.find :all, :order => "name DESC LIMIT
5"
end
end
def new
@client = Client.new
@console = Console.new
@datetime = DateTime.now
end
def create
@client = Client.new(params[:client])
@console = Console.new(params[:console])
@client.consoles << @console
if @client.save
flash[:notice] = ''Client saved succesfully!''
redirect_to :action=> ''index''
else
render :action => ''new''
end
end
def change
end
def addConsole
end
def delConsole
end
end
And here is my .rhtml:
<html>
<head>
<title>Create Client</title>
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
</head>
<body>
<h1>New Client</h1>
<form action="create/<%= @client.id %>"
method="POST">
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="hidden" id="client_id"
name="client[id]" value="<%@client.id %>"

<td><input type="hidden" id="client_dateReg"

<td>

id="male_gender"

:url => {:action => ''change''}) %>"

value="Female" onClick="<%remote_function(
:url => {:action => ''change_female''}) %>" />
-->
<select id="client_gender" name="client[gender]"
onChange="<%remote_function(
:url => {:action => ''change''}) %>">
<option value="">- Select -</option>
<option value="Male">Male</option>
<option value="Female">Female</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="male_form" style="display: none">
Have you been tested for prostate cancer? Yes <input
type="radio" id="client_isTested"
name="client[isTested]" value="1"
/> No <input type="radio"

</div>
</td>
<tr>
<tr>
<td>
<div id="female_form" style="display: none">

</div>
</td>
<tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">Console:</td>
<td>
<input type="text" id="console_name"
name="console[name]"
value="<%= @console.name %>" /><br/>
<button type="button" id="AddConsole"
onClick="<%remote_function( :url => {:action =>
''addConsole''}) %>">+</button>
<button type="button" id="DelConsole"
onClick="<%remote_function( :url => {:action =>
''delConsole''}) %>">-</button>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"
align="center"><br/><br/><input
type="submit"
id="Submit" value="CREATE" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
<%= link_to ''Back'', :action => ''list''
%>
</body>
</html>
And here is my .rjs:
page.insert_html :before, ''console_name'', "<input
type=''text''
id=''console_name'' name=''console[name]''/>
<br/>"
What I am trying to do here is that when the client clicks on the "+"
button it calls the addConsole.rjs and it adds another input field to
add one more console. Now when I create the client, it only adds the
first Console input field and not the second into my database. How can I
add multiple items of the same objects into the database?
Thanks
