After I thought this was fixed I found out that it wasn''t.
What i want to do is give the user the ability to add additional text_fields
to their form.
I''ve created the calls and forms but let me show what''s going
on:
In the form:
<%= link_to_remote "[+]",
:update => ''xtratitle'',
:url => {:action =>
"addtfield"} %></td>
..............................
<% end %><div id="xtratitle"></div></td> #
here is the div for the update
(which works when ..keep reading)
In the controller -
def addtfield
render(:partial => ''txtfield'')
end
So here is the where the problem seems to be:
In the controller I have a
before_filter :find_candidate
private
def find_candidate
@candidate_id = params[:candidate_id]
redirect_to candidate_url unless @candidate_id
@candidate = Candidate.find(@candidate_id)
When it''s enabled - and I try the link_to_remote I get this error:
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound in CanpositionsController#addtfield
Couldn''t find Candidate without an ID
If I disable the before_filter (which is obviously not the right solution)
Then it gets me in the create or update code for not having the
@candidate_id so db operations can''t take place.
I thought that since I was only adding a field into the form the form should
handle this candidate_id , not sure.
Any suggestions ?

Stuart, Adding a field is a separate action, so you''re going to have to let your controller know what you''re doing. Add :candidate_id => @candidate.id in your :url hash, change your before_filter to not include the addtfield action, use the session or flash, do something. And I don''t know the specifics of your page layout, but keep in mind that update means replace_html. If you want to append something, use :position. -- -yossef --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thank you Yossef.
It is working now , however I believe adding the candidate_id to the
link_to_remote hash has any effect
url => {:action => "addtfield", :candidate_id =>
@candidate.id}
I only say that cause I added a condition in the action based on the
candidate_id and it had no effect.
Unless I need to add more braces , which I haven''t tried yet.

I also have another related question to this -
Having a weird behaviour with my action :
def addtfield
user_title_counts = Cantitle.count(:all, :conditions => ["user_id
?", current_user.id])
if user_title_counts == 3
flash[:notice]= "Maximum 3 allowed"
else
render(:partial => ''txtfield'')
end
end
Problem is that it''s not sending a flash notice but it''s
throwing an error
looking for addtfield.rhtml ?

All you really need is some javascript to add a new form element. So here is a js function that will insert a new text_field when you click a link. <script type=''text/javascript''> function addNewTextField(id, obj, meth, val){ new Insertion.Before(id, ''<input type="text" name="''+obj+''[''+meth +'']" value="''+val+''" />'') } </script> <% form_for(:whatever, :url => whateverss_path) do |f| %> <%= text_filed ''whatever'', ''foo'' %> <%= link_to_function "[+] add", "addNewTextField(''buttons_info'', ''canlocation'', ''city'')" %> <div class="buttons_info"> <%= submit_tag "Submit" %> </div> <% end %> Have fun with it. -- Ezra Zygmuntowicz -- Lead Rails Evangelist -- ez-NLltGlunAUd/unjJdyJNww@public.gmane.org -- Engine Yard, Serious Rails Hosting -- (866) 518-YARD (9273) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
