Good day. I have spent almost 2 days on this issue. I have asked everyone from my Rails expert to my Javasript expert and we can not for the life of us figure out the issue with this one form element. I have a form which contains several readonly/disabled (firefox/ie) form elements. ALL elements in the form are updated correctly EXCEPT this one form element. The form element in the view looks as the following: <input type="text" id="total_commission_<%= @product.id %>" name="total_commission_<%= @product.id %>" value="<%number_to_currency(po_detail.commission, { :precision => 4 }) rescue nil %>" disabled="true" readonly="readonly" style="width: 50%"/> The RJS template code is as follows: page << "(''total_commission_#{@product_id}'').value=''" + number_to_currency(@new_total_commission, { :precision => 4 }).to_s + "'';" The controller code is as follows in the update_totals method which is called via the observe_field : if @comm_type == "L" @new_total_commission = @new_total_sell.to_f * @converted_rate.to_f else @new_total_commission = @new_total_weight.to_f * @converted_rate.to_f end Outputting debug to the log file shows that the @new_total_commission is being set correctly. The debug information in the browser window for the RJS "trick" produces the following: (''total_commission_3407'').value=''$210.0000''; As I have stated, there are SEVERAL of these readonly/disabled fields and ALL of them are updated EXCEPT this one form field. I have yet to understand what could be causing this one field to be left out of the update party. If anyone has any type of advice to offer, I am open to anything/everything that might work.
