Rails - Jan 2006 - link_to_remote > in :action , interrupt ajax to render a new page outside the :update div ?

Hello,

I have a simple link_to_remote that refresh a div. I just want to know 
if it''s possible to interrupt the div''s refresh inside :action
to
perform a complete reload of the page, outside of the div

Actually, I havea a new page, but loaded inside the ":update" div.

Someone have an idea please ?


the rhtml:
****

link_to_remote "yeah" , :update => "div" , :url => {
:action =>
"theaction" }

the rb:
****

def theaction
    count -= 1
    if count > 0
       redirect_to :action "main" # to refresh all the page
    else
       render :partial => "..." # refresh inside div stuff
    end
end

I don''t think you can do it from insode the action like in the example 
you gave, but you can do it with RJS (you need to be yusing edge rails.

View:

<%= link_to_remote ''yeah'', :url => { :action =>
:theaction } %>

Controller:

def theaction
  # update count here, you''ll probably need to use the session
end

theaction.rjs:

if @session[:count] > 0
  page.redirect_to :action => :main
else
  page.replace_html ''div'', :partial => "..."
end

Cheers, -Jonny.

Thanks :)
I hope that RJS will be part of the next release of rails. More easy 
than plugin.
