Hi there, i''ve been browsing the net for tutorials on using prototype 1.6. I am using it to change most of my ajax scripts as they have browser incompatibility issues. I am looking for a format on how to set the Ajax.Updater method to post, and where and how would i do this, do i have to first serialize the form values? What if i am not using a form for these values, what if i just want to make the post array myself like: msg = "txCName=" + escape(cname) + "&"; msg += "txNature=" + escape(nature) + "&"; msg += "txSector=" + escape(sector) + "&"; msg += "txDate=" + escape(dates) + "&"; msg += "txEmployees=" + escape(numempl) + "&"; msg += "txMail=" + escape(mail) + "&"; and then post the msg string? please help --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

OK, you know using get you have something like this:
$(''loader'').innerHTML = "<img
src=''ajax-loader.gif'' />";
var url = ''getselect.php'';
var pars = "type=" + type;
new Ajax.Updater(''loader'', url,
{
method: ''get'',
parameters: pars,
});
what would be the equivalent using POST method, would you just need to
replace the ''get'' with post, or do you have to use a
serialized form
array variable?
can i not use something like this:
msg = "txCName=" + escape(cname) + "&";
msg += "txNature=" + escape(nature) + "&";
msg += "txSector=" + escape(sector) + "&";
msg += "txDate=" + escape(dates) + "&";
msg += "txEmployees=" + escape(numempl) + "&";
msg += "txMail=" + escape(mail) + "&";
and pass it to the parameters thing? Sometimes i will not be using
forms, i will only want to post the data i want to post, does that
give you any clarity?
Thanks a lot for the input.

Hi, Just change the name of the method. From ''parameters'' documentation on the Ajax.Options page I linked to (my CAPS): << The parameters for the request, which will be encoded into the URL for a ''get'' method, OR INTO THE REQUEST BODY FOR THE OTHER METHODS. This can be provided either as a URL-encoded string or as any Hash- compatible object (basically anything), with properties representing parameters. >> -- T.J.
