hi, i''m writing a web application for products insertion, the first field is the product name. When the product name is typed i check if it already exists with an ajax call. If it exist i new advice message is create.I would like also to disable the other form do fields or hide the submit button until the product name is valid . What i would like to know is the best, or more elegant way to do that. thanks. cirpo --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

You don''t need prototype to do this. You can do it just by setting the disabled property of the form elements. document.Form1.Name.disabled=true ... or something like that. You can do the same with the buttons. If you want to hide something, put it in a div and use prototype to hide it: <div id=''something''><input type-submit value=" save "></div> then use: Element.hide(''something'') On Apr 24, 4:29 am, cirpo <alessandro.cine...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> hi, i''m writing a web application for products insertion, the first > field is the product name. > When the product name is typed i check if it already exists with an > ajax call. > If it exist i new advice message is create.I would like also to > disable the other form do fields or hide the submit button until > the product name is valid . > What i would like to know is the best, or more elegant way to do that. > > thanks. > > cirpo--~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.
