Rails - Feb 2006 - [newbie] Question about form_remote_tag

Howdy,

I have a form that is defined with "form_remote_tag(:update => 
"my_status", :url => { :action => :responder, :id =>
@event.id } )",
that uses a model with call to validates_presence_of.

The problem is, I can''t seem to figure out how to update the screen 
after an @object.save fails, because of values missing (i.e. 
validates_presence_of).

The call back to "my_status", which is a DIV, seems to work just fine:
render_text "Saved okay". I guess I''m just missing the method
to show
errors from a controller.

Note: I know in the view, you would have "<%= error_messages_for 
''object'' %>". This never gets updated in the AJAX
style call...


Thanks for any help. :)

Nevermind, I figured it out:

Stub in a view file that matched my action (by name), and include <%= 
error_messages_for ''event'' %>.

This is then rendered back in my render_text call.


Simple enough... :)
