Hi,
I have a drop down select which fires an ajax call once selected.
So when i select anything in the email_seperator drop down it fisre the
ajax event below.
<%= observe_field(''email_seperator'',
:on => ''click'',
:url => {:controller => ''possible_emails'',
:action =>
''update_email''},
:with =>
"''email_seperator=''+$F(''email_seperator'')",
:before => "Element.show(''spinner'')",
:success => "Element.hide(''spinner'')")
%>
What i want is when the page first loads for this ajax event to fire
once so the correct information is diaplyed. Ive tried something like
the below but it works for focus but not for click
<%= javascript_tag render(:update) { |page|
page[''email_seperator''].focus } %>
<%= javascript_tag render(:update) { |page|
page[''email_seperator''].click } %>
Can anyone help??
JB

If you mean you want to give the dropdown an initial value, options_for_select lets you specify the selected value. See the documentation for that method and the ones that follow it at api.rubyonrails.org.
