Hi,
first of all, sorry for my newb question but cannot find any help on
this simple stuff and I''m kinda new with Rails.
How can I make an ''empty'' link with an onclick attribute only,
to call
a js function?
I want it like this:
<a href="#" onclick="foo();">bar</a>
I''m trying to do
<%= link_to ''bar'', {}, {:onclick =>
''foo();''} %>
but it always give me a link like this:
<a href="http://localhost:3000/"
onclick="foo();">bar</a>
Although I know I should use js event handlers to do this kinda stuff
(opening & closing a div), I''m curious now, as I couldn''t
solve this
:)
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
András

Hi, I have a newbie question too. What is the advantage of using a Rails function that will expand itself into HTML ? Why not writing the link directly in HTML ? Mickael.
