Hi, This is a bit of a strange one but i basically i have a link_to_remote which takes the value from an autocomplete field and puts it in a table by rendering a partial via ajax. I have a before and success to display a spinning image before and hide it when complete. What is happening is the spinning image is being displayed when i click the link_to_remote but dissappearing straight away and then a second or so later my partial is rendered. If i remove the autocomplete box and put a select drop down menu as a test this works fine. Ive tried the different options from the api like :loading => but still have the same problem with the autocomplete box. Ive tried everything i can think of. Has anyone any ideas?? code is below. <%= link_to_remote "Add Company to News", :url => {:action => ''add_company_news_row''}, :before => "Element.show(''loading'')", :success => "Element.hide(''loading'')" <p id="loading" style="display: none;"><%=image_tag ''spinner.gif'', :alt => ''Updating...''%> Updating Please Wait...</p> JB --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
