I''m trying to use the form_remote_tag for the first time..
Here is my code:
<%= form_remote_tag(:url => { :action => ''add'' } )
%>
<td size=''100''><%= text_field_tag
''name'' %></td>
<td size=''200''><%= text_field_tag
''email'' %></td>
<td id=''submit''><%= submit_tag
''icon_additem.gif'' %></td>
<%= end_form_tag %>
For whatever reason this is not submitting any of my params... The log
shows no params being sent.
Env is OSX 10.4 + Lighttpd + Safari/Firefox/Camino.
Any clue what is wrong?? I''m trying to do a demo in 30min without any
luck.
Thanks.
Josh

This makes no sense why these tags would have to be outside the table tag. Also, I was unable to insert a row into the table using RJS. Is this just a fact of life with tables? I know that I should be using div/css but are these problems documented anywhere? I''m assuming its not just a Rails thing and I''d like to know more about what causes this problem.

You can''t place a form tag at a position at which only a thead, tbody, th, tr, or td tag is allowed. You can however place a form inside a td, possibly followed by a nested table. Your inability to insert a row using RJS is probably an Internet Explorer issue. I''ve read that people have had success when using the Taconite extension for Prototype: http://taconite.sourceforge.net/ -- We develop, watch us RoR, in numbers too big to ignore.

But I too am confused about the cause of the problem. My code was very similar to Josh''s, but I then went back and replaced my form_remote_tag with an equivalent form_tag (removing the AJAX), and the params were posted properly. So it doesn''t seem to be solely a HTML issue with forms. It seems like it is an issue with AJAX, HTML and forms. Any thoughts on why it works with a regular form_tag? -Ryan -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Ryan, I had a problem that seems similar to yours. After hacking at it for **way** too much time, I figured it out.
