Hello,
Does anyone know how to use error_messages_for with remote_form_for?
Here is my code:
<%= error_messages_for ''quotation'' %>
<div id="quotation_form">
<% remote_form_for(Quotation.new, :url => { :action =>
"send_quotation" }) do |f| %>
....
....
....
<% end %>
The <%= error_messages_for ''quotation'' %> is always
replaced by empty
space in html as ''quotation'' at that time is nil.
Any idea how to make it work without setting ''quotation''
variable in
the controller?
thanks,
bogumbiker

As I understand it error_messages_for is displays the errors associated with the given variable. If quotation is nil how can it have errors associated with it? You have not described what you are doing to generate some errors that you would like to display. Presumably this is as a result of submitting the form that is being generated, if so what are you doing to get the invalid object back to the displayed page so its errors can be displayed? Colin

Thanks for all suggestion. It seems that the only solution is the javascript. bogumbiker On Aug 31, 8:21 pm, Frederick Cheung <frederick.che...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> On Aug 30, 4:29 am, bgumbiker <bogumil.bial...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote: > > > No success.

If you''re returning RJS or the like from the AJAX call, the method I''d use would be to wrap the error_messages_for in a div and send back a page.replace call that fills it out. I''ve used this in a couple production apps without problems. --Matt Jones On Aug 29, 4:51 am, bgumbiker <bogumil.bial...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Hello, > Does anyone know how to use error_messages_for with remote_form_for? > > Here is my code: > > <%= error_messages_for ''quotation'' %> > > <div id="quotation_form"> > <% remote_form_for(Quotation.new, :url => { :action => > "send_quotation" }) do |f| %> > .... > .... > .... > <% end %> > > The <%= error_messages_for ''quotation'' %> is always replaced by empty > space in html as ''quotation'' at that time is nil. > > Any idea how to make it work without setting ''quotation'' variable in > the controller? > > thanks, > bogumbiker
