Hey all - What I''m trying to accomplish is creating my own edit in place on a set of data. Right now I''m just toying with some nonsense app, but when I figure it out it''ll be put to good use. I divide my code between the view, the partial, the controller and the rjs template. For the sake of example, I have a list of products and I''m trying to enable editing their names: ---------- # in the view <h1>Product List</h1> <table id="prod-table"> <%= render :partial => ''product'', :collection => @products, :locals => {:edit_mode => false }}%> </table> <%= link_to_function ''edit'', go_to_edit_mode %> # in the partial <% @product = product %> <tr> <% if edit_mode -%> <%= text_field :product, :name, :size => 10 %> <% else -%> <%= product.name %> <% end -%> </tr> #in the controller (_product.html.erb) def go_to_edit_mode @prods = Product.find(:all) respond_to do |format| format.html { render :partial => ''product'', :collection => @prods, :locals => {:edit_mode => false }} format.js end end # in the rjs (go_to_edit_mode.js.rjs) page.replace_html ''prod-table'', :partial => ''product'', :collection => Product.find(:all, :order => ''name''), :edit_mode => true ---------- This is hardly working, though I think I''m going in the right direction... Someone whos a seasoned rails developer will probably see the problems right away, but since I''m new, I''d very much appreciate any help I could get here - thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
