Hello,
I want to ask the users specific question using javascript, and then get
the answer :)
<%= button_to_function "My Test", "prompt(''Your name
is?'')" %>
How can I accomplish this?
I hope someone out there can help me with this, and thanks for your help
:D

You can use the Rails remote_function() helper to write the js for that. Use the :with option to pass the js variable. Here''s an example from an app of mine: <%= javascript_tag %Q{ function x_add_task() { var name = prompt(''Name for new task'', ''''); if (name == null) return; #{remote_function :url => {:action => ''x_add_task'', :id => @obj.id}, :with => "''name='' + name" } } } %> Then later: <%= link_to_function ''Add Task'', ''x_add_task()'' %> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
