...erstand that I wouldn''t be able to directly query into the DOM/CSS of a page from within an RJS file because it runs on the server but is there any way to populate a variable from the controller or something to gain access to DOM information? What I want to do is this: I have some RJS to blind_down an error message panel, but if the form is resubmitted and there are still errors, the blind_down still plays from the beginning because the RJS just says to blind_down with no conditions. I would like to be able to query the visibility of the error div to determine if I should blind_down or just l...

I''ve read through all the articles online but most/all of it discusses the use of Scaffolding as a quick solution for reading/writing to a database. I follow all that but now I''m trying to simply get a field from a table in the database to display in my .rhtml files. I''ve been trying to figure this out but to no avail. Someone please help! Thanks. Tim -- Posted

Within the RJS template is there a way to specify when the visual_effect should occur? I''m trying not to repeat the :before and :success blind_down visual_effect statements throughout my views. It seems like the rjs templates can only take visual effects statements in the form of page.visual_effect :blind_up, ''divname''. I can''t figure out how to add :before or :success to this statement. Thanks, DAN -- Posted...

...the operation that I would like -User enters data - On submit of the form, the spinner shows - If there is an error, the error div is shown and everything else is hidden - If results are successfully returned, spinner and error are hidden and results are displayed in the search_results div with a :blind_down effect. Here is the view that I came up with: <%= form_remote_tag(:html => {:action => :search} :url => {:action => :list}, :update => {:success => ''search_results'', :failure => ''error''} :before => %(Element.show(''...

hi, This is regarding the "Depot Application". Section 9.3, Iteration D3 -- Highlighting Changes. I''ve followed this exactly according to the PDF, but it doesn''t work.

I''m using partials together with ajax.. So when a user submits a form, the results are parsed in a :blind_down visual effect.. it works pretty well... Except, I want the partial to parse a set of table rows (with table cells accordingly) - and I cannot add a the table-tag (and th-tags) around the results.. Obviously, in the partial template the rows are looped through, so I should not add them there,...

I was wondering if there is a Rails method that does something similar to the "About your application?s environment" link on the "Welcome Aboard" page you get when you first install Rails. What the link does is make and AJAX call, then blind down and up using AJAX. Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, What would my method call in an rjs template to produce something like: new Effect.BlindDown($(''commentList'').lastChild); I know if I just wanted to the blind effect I would: page.visual_effect :blind_down, "row_#{@new_item.id}" but how would I call it if I want the ".lastChild instead of passing a particular id? thanks, scott. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What''s an Intel chip doing in a Mac?

What''s the best way to do this? I''m thinking I can do it in RJS maybe, but I''m not sure if there''s a nice Rails-y way to tell if a div is hidden or not.. I''d also

Hi I had ajax commenting on my app, which worked perfectly on Rails v1.2.6, but does not work the same in Rails 2.02.
