I have a sortable list in one of my views, using the sortable example from the recipes book. The sorting works great on my mac. When I throw it on the server for testing it doesn''t save the display order. I cracked open the log file and see that it''s not even returning the id''s like it should: Parameters: {"action"=>"sort", "id"=>"#<Navigation:0x2a96ba54b8>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba5440>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba53a0>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba5170>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba50f8>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba5058>/#<Navigation:0x2a96ba4e28>", "controller"=>"admin/navigations"} On my mac this is what i get in the logs: Parameters: {"menu-list"=>["15", "13", "14", "12"], "action"=>"sort", "id"=>"#<Navigation:0x2221a5c>/#<Navigation:0x2221a20>/#<Navigation:0x22219e4>/#<Navigation:0x2221994>", "controller"=>"admin/navigations"} I''m using ruby 1.8.4 with rails 1.1.2 on both machines. The only difference is from mac to RHEL4 Can anyone give me an idea of what could be the problem? In case you need it, this is the action: def sort @navigation = Navigation.find(:all) @navigation.each do |menu_item| menu_item.display_order = params[''menu-list''].index(menu_item.id.to_s) + 1 menu_item.save end render :nothing => true end This my view: <ul id="menu-list"> <% @navigation.each do |menu| %> <li id="item_<%= menu.id %>"> <div id="dragbox"> <div class="dbleft"><%= link_to image_tag("/images/go.png", :border => ''0''), :action => ''edit'', :id => menu.id %><b><%= menu.name %></b></div> <div class="dbright"> <%= link_to image_tag("/images/delete.png", :border => ''0''), {:action => ''destroy'', :id => menu.id}, :confirm => ''Are you sure you want to delete this menu item? You cannot undo this action!'' %> </div> </li> <ul></ul> <% end %> </ul> <%= sortable_element ''menu-list'', :url => { :action => "sort", :id => @navigation }, :complete => visual_effect(:highlight, ''menu-list'') %> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
