Hey there I''m trying to test this condition in an RJS template if page[''search''].value == "somequerystring" And it never returns true. Any ideas? I''ve used page[''element''] = value for setting a textbox in the past with no problem. Not sure what checking the value would fail.

They are produced server side and don''t have access to the state of the client side. So you can''t test on the value of something on the page in the RJS template itself. You can render a JS conditional, or you can pass the value you are interested in as a parameter to the call that invokes the RJS action. _Kevin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

_Kevin,
That makes good sense. If anyone else runs into this, here''s the syntax
page << "if($(''search'').value ==
''#{session[:value]}'') {"
# do stuff here
page << "}"
Thanks _Kevin.

You might be interested in http://www.agilewebdevelopment.com/plugins/rjs_if_unless_blocks I don''t know if it does exactly what you''re interested in, but it''s pretty good in other cases for getting rid of that fairly ugly syntax Fred -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
