Ajax Call redirect to a full page refresh

Hi,

Let s assume my controller gets a ajax call... I will start the
process to to the appropriate actions...
During the process I discover that the changes are too complex and I
cannot provide the user the response with just an ajax response...
instead I would need a full page fresh...

Unfortunelty, I ve got no idea how to solve this... :-(

Thanks a lot in advance...

def my_action
  if changes_are_too_complex
    redirect_to :action => ''show'' ...
  else
    # auto-render my_action.rjs template if its there
  end
end

If you don''t do anything, you''ll get the template
automatically.  If
you do a redirect, the auto template will get skipped.

>   since you have in "page" the object representing your javascript 
document, you could just send a client-side redirect to that object and 
the browser would do the rest.

Re: Ajax Call redirect to a full page refresh

Unfortunately, I don''t believe that will work. From what I''ve
seen, what
Wes'' solution will do is redraw the entire page inside of the element
specified in Ajax.Update, leading to a very odd looking site-in-site effect.


The best way I could think of doing it was to send RJS back that does a
simple "document.location = page_url", forcing the browser to reload
the
page from scratch.

you use update you can change that easily), you can directly do
    page.redirect_to whatever

you can do that in the rjs or directly on the controller by using render 
:update. Behind the scenes it will do domething pretty similar to what 
you propose, which is changing window.location.href. The advantage is 
you can use the parameters of redirect_to and you don''t need to 
implement anything at the server side

Re: Ajax Call redirect to a full page refresh

I would do something like

def my_action
  if changes_are_too_complex
    render :update do |page|
      page.redirect_to :action => "show"
    end
  end
end

Also with the default my_action.rjs template (as indicated above).

I could''a sworn that I''d used redirect_to instead of
page.redirect_to.
Anyway, you can do your processing to determine what "too complex"
means, then either render a redirect, render some js in the
controller, or pass it to a .rjs template.

Re: Ajax Call redirect to a full page refresh

My guess is that you just want cause the entire page to refresh.... so
here is another option...

def my_action
    #do stuff
    if changes_are_too_complex
        render :update do |page|
            page.replace_html ''message_to_user_div'',
''<strong>Reloading
Page...</strong>''
            page.call ''location.reload''
        end
    else
       #do other stuff
    end
end
