Rails - Feb 2006 - Calling a javascript function after loading a partial with rjs

Hi,
Is is possible to call a javascript function once a partial is loaded.
Here''s what I am doing.
I have a partial that gets updated via. an ajax call. When the partial 
is updated I want to call a javascript function ( enableTooltips ) which 
will then add tooltips to my links in the newly updated partial.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

I believe the :complete option will accomplish this for you.

Another method is to stick a script tag in your partial that calls the
function.

Haven''t used either of these, just recalling from the API docs I read
so
take it as a starting point for your research.

Thanks for the help Bob,

Putting the code in the partial works fine in Firefox, but alas IE lets 
up down on this one. It seems that IE doesn''t allow changing HTML
tables
via DOM until they are fully rendered. IE crashes with an "Operation 
Aborted" error. This happens in both IE 6 and the new IE 7 Beta.

The :complete worked perfectly though. I should have known. It''s
getting
late though and my brain isn''t working like it should be.

Thanks again,
Eric
