Hi folks,
I have following in my view :
==================
<div class="foo">
<%= select ''theme'', "id", Theme.find_all.collect
{|t| [ t.name, t.id
] }, { :prompt => ''Select a theme'' } %>
</div>
<%= observe_field(
:theme_id,
:update => :my_style,
:url => { :action => :themelookup, :id => @space,},
:with => ''theme_id'')
%>
<div class="userfoo">
<%= text_area ''my'', ''style'', :cols
=> ''65'', :rows=>''10'' %>
</div>
========================================
Basically I''m updating the text area based on selection made from
selection box. This works well. But in firefox, if I edit the value in
textbox and try to make a different selection from the selection box,
it doesnt update. This works well in IE !? Any pointers ?
Thanks,
Pratik

Any pointers ?Two things to look at with your observe field call: 1. You should be updating userfoo rather than my_style 2. You don''t need to use the :with option -- We develop, watch us RoR, in numbers too big to ignore.
That''s how I got that working. But still dont understand why I cannot update "my_style". It works well in IE. Also, when I update "userfoo", I need to write html code in my controller. What are the common ways to keep my controller clean to avoid this kind of cases ? Thanks for the reply Mark. -Pratik On 6/22/06, Mark Reginald James <mrj@bigpond.net.au> wrote:> Pratik wrote: > > > <div class="foo"> > > <%= select ''theme'', "id", Theme.find_all.collect {|t| [ t.name, t.id > > ] }, { :prompt => ''Select a theme'' } %> > > </div> > > > > <%= observe_field( > > :theme_id, > > :update => :my_style, > > :url => { :action => :themelookup, :id => @space,}, > > :with => ''theme_id'') > > %> > > > > <div class="userfoo"> > > <%= text_area ''my'', ''style'', :cols => ''65'', :rows=>''10'' %> > > </div> > > ========================================> > > > Basically I''m updating the text area based on selection made from > > selection box.

Look into RJS templates. They will let you write these calls without regenerating any HTML in the controller actions. http://www.codyfauser.com/articles/2005/11/20/rails-rjs-templates Jason Pratik wrote:> That''s how I got that working.
