Rails - Apr 2006 - rjs in multiple ajax page

Sorry for the long explanation but I''m having trouble integrating rjs
into my
form page. Here''s my page:

<div id="posts">
<ul id="post_list"><%= render :partial =>
''list_results'', :collection =>
@posts %></ul>
<p><%= link_to_remote(''+'',
		:url => {:action => ''new''}, 
		:update => ''new_post'', 
		:loading => visual_effect(:slide_down, "new_post", :duration
=> 0.5))
%></p>
</div>

<div id="new_post">
</div>

This works fine and the form is rendered inside "new_post" from the
controller using render :partial => ''edit_new'', :layout
=> false

_edit_new is as follows:

<%= form_remote_tag(:url => {:action => ''create'', :id
=> @post}) %>
<p>subject:</p>
<p><%= text_field(:post, :subject, :width => 60) %></p>
<p>message:</p>
<p><%= text_area(:post, :content, :rows => 15, :cols => 60)
%></p>
<p><%= submit_tag(''add now'') %></p>
<%= end_form_tag %>

Theoretically, create.rjs is used to render this, and indeed a logger.debug
shows that to be true. Here''s create.rjs:

logger.debug ''writing rjs''
page.insert_html :top, ''post_list'', :partial =>
''list_results'', :locals => {
:list_results => @post }
page.visual_effect :highlight, ''post_list''

Nothing happens! Of course I know this is one of the tough parts about rjs,
but is there anything obvious that I''m missing?

Thanks

You have to take the :update out of the link_to_remote.

It will work when that it gone.

It wasn''t the link_to_remote that was a problem. That''s
straightforward AJAX.
It''s the second one. However, I took your suggestion and changed the
link_to_remote and created a new.rjs. It doesn''t work either.
I''ve reduced
this to a trivial case and that works; however, inside my real page it
fails. Is there something that can disrupt rjs responses?

How would one know?

Thanks

I have tried using the :locals parameter with a :partial call in RJS but 
I couldn''t get it to work.

You might try a test without the :locals call, see how that goes.
