Hi all, I''ve been doing some work on the Ajax Scaffold (http://www.ajaxscaffold.com/), to make it work with file uploads (more specifically, the file_upload plugin). The first logical step was to get rid of form_remote_tag, since it''s impossible to send files via XMLHTTPRequests (to my best knowledge). So I referred to the iframe hack, similar to the upload progress bar here (http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/). The way I found to perform an action upon successful form submission was to include javascript code in the response view, which will be rendered in the hidden iframe. It gets executed, it works perfectly well. But here''s the problem: I wanted to simply "import" the RJS files that come with the Ajax Scaffold. The way I figured to do that was to do write my view (the one getting rendered in the hidden iframe) like this: #### BEGIN CODE #### <html> <head> <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %> <script type="text/javascript"> <%= render :update do |page| # all the RJS goes here end %> </head> <body></body> </html> #### END CODE #### Sounds like it will work. But here''s the catch: all the elements that the RJS code above is referring to are supposed to be in the same page where the output javascript is. The only way to refer to them is to preceed their ID''s with "window.parent.document.getElementById", so the code inside the iframe is actually targetting the page "hosting" it, and that''s where the elements we want to manipulate are. So my question is: is there a way to do it via RJS? I thought that something like "page.parent" existed, but it doesn''t. It also comes to my mind a hack, where the parameters you supply to the RJS functions don''t get quoted, meaning if I did something like this: page.visual_effect :highlight, /window.parent.document.getElementById(''test'')/ It would output "window.parent..." with no surrounding quotes. If that worked, Prototype would find the element just fine. The only other choice I have here is actually fetching all the JS output, and writing it all in the view, changing the target for the Prototype functions. But that sounds cranky to me.
