Hi,
I''m hitting a bump with the form_remote_tag, and wondering if anyone
can
help.. SO i''m trying to implement a tag-based search on a site and
using
routes, I can enter a url such as http://localhost/tag/query , which calls
an action ''search'', and returns all the posts which are tagged
with the word
''query''..
fine...
In the search.rhtml page, I have a search form, that has several
filter/search options (in the select tags), and below that, there are the
results which are updated in a results div. It essentially looks like the
following:
--------------------------------
search.rhtml -----------------------------------
<%= form_remote_tag(:update => ''search_results'', :url
=> {:action =>
:search}, :loading =>
''SearchController.disableSearchForm()'', :complete =>
''
SearchController.enableSearchForm()'', :id =>
''search_form'')%>
<%= select(:search, :selection, [[''Newest First'',
''new''],[''Most Popular
First'',''popular'']]) %>
<% select(:search, :time, [[''Today'',
''day''],[''Last
Week'',''week''],[''Last
Month'', ''month''],[''Last
Year'',''year'']], {:selected =>
''month''}) %>
<%= select(:search, :field, [[''Search By Title'',
''title''],[''Title and
Descriptions'',''description''],[''Tags'',
''tag'']]) %>
<%= text_field_tag ''query''%>
<%= submit_tag ''Search'', :action =>
''search'', :onsubmit => ''
SearchController.disableSearchForm();'' %>
<%= end_form_tag %>
<div id=''search_results''>
<%= render :partial => ''search_results'' %>
</div>
---------------------------- end
search.rhtml---------------------
As you can see, I''m using the following syntax in the form_remote
tag:
form_remote_tag(:update => ''search_results'', :url
=> {:action =>
:search},...
hoping that it will generate html that will post the form to
http://localhost/search. Keep in mind that at this point, the url of the
page this form is on is currently http://localhost/tag/query (from the
previous tag search) When I examine the html source however, or use
Firebug to look at the request, I see that the form is still being POSTed to
http://localhost/tag/query, and not http://localhost/search as I expect..
the html looks like this:
---------------------------- generated html
---------------------
<form action="/tag/yard" method="post" onsubmit="new
Ajax.Updater(''search_results'', ''/tag/yard'',
---------------------------- end
generated.rhtml---------------------
So the question is, what am I doing wrong, and how can I make it post to the
''search'' action, and not the current url of the page?
Thanks,
-Sidney
