I used RJS extensively in my last web app with no problem.
I''m just beginning a new one and having a very odd problem.
The called method, get_names, retrieves some values from the database,
then ends:
render :layout => false
the get_names.rjs file is rendered into Javascript, but then is just
dumped as Javascript (text) into the browser:
e.g:
try {
Element.update("this_panel", "");
new Insertion.Bottom( ... );
} catch (e) { alert(''RJS error:\n\n''
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Does the link_to_remote by any chance have an :update => ''this_panel'' in it ? That would take the reuslt of the Ajax call and update the div. I often make this mistake if I start with an update and replace it with RJS.

If you copy the code from the rjs into the action and use render :update instead, does it work there ? http://codefluency.com/articles/2006/05/27/rails-views-render-update-not-rjs/ A. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
