Hi, just looking for "best practice" guidance...
I have a controller method that renders its output with an rhtml view
file. The output can also be updated via an rjs update via an rjs view
file.
I can''t work out if it is possible to have action.rhtml AND action.rjs
and have the correct one called depending on the request. SO, I have
done this:
if I have have "my_action.rhtml" and "my_action_update.rjs",
then the controller method is :-
def my_action
.... action code...
render :action => :my_action_update if request.xhr?
end
This works, but is it the right way, or is there a better way?
Comments appreciated :)

> Try "respond_to" -Yes this worked, thanks! Actually, it didn''t work straight off. I discovered it only works if the files are called "action.html.rhtml" and "action.js.rjs" instead of "action.rhtml" and "action.rjs". I googled and found that this naming dependency was introduced with rails 2.0.2. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
