I have a form where I dynamically add form elements based on user input. An example is that when a user selects a "server" from a select box I add (via AJAX calls back to server) a "type" select box pre-populated with valid choices for that server. I do this by using observe_field on the "server" field and update a div on the page with the new "type" select box. So far so good. The form submits with all the proper values. Now I want to watch the newly added "type" field with observe_field but it doesn''t work. I never see the cal...

I have been trying to pass a collection_select parameter and a text field parameter to observe_field so that it watches both the parameters simultaneously. but what i can see is , when i select some value from drop down and dont write anything in text field its giving correct results.parameters are also correct passed, but just after that if i write something in text field that value also get pas...

The subject pretty much says it all: I can''t?get observe_field to take a variable for a field name I''ve tried: <%= observe_field(var_name, ... <%= observe_field("#{var_name}", ... <%= observe_field(:"#{var_name}", ... No luck. Am I missing something? Thanks, : ) Jason -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, I have observers for a group of radio buttons, an observe_field for each radio button (I think its not possible to have one observe_field for a group of radio buttons). Now, the problem is that when I click on one radio button, all the observers get trigerred, so the method which the observe_field calls gets the wrong result. I just want that method to get...

I try to catch click event on radio button, but nothing is executed.... Tested with RoR 1.1.2 and 1.1.3. What am I doing wrong? <%= radio_button_tag(:city, ''Dublin'') %> <%= observe_field(:citi, :frequency => 0.5, :on => ''click'', :with => "''city='' + $F(''citi'')", :url => { :action => ''remote_city_choosen'' }) %>...

...9;m getting a really strange result using RJS page.replace_html and wonder if anybody knows anything that could help me figure it out. I''m rendering a partial in a loop in edit.rhtml that puts a set of <div>s on the page, each <div> containing a checkbox_tag with an associated observe_field and a text_field_tag also with an associated observe_field. When the checkbox changes the observe_field shoots an AJAX message back to the controller which, when it''s finished doing its database-update thing, does a render :update do |page| page.replace_html ... which is _supposed to_ *r...

...fxjson&command={your searchterms}'' if you want to see the results in your browser, use xml instead: http://ff.search.yahoo.com/gossip?output=xml&command={your searchterms}'' So, I can type this into a browser directly and it works just fine, but when i try to use it with observe_field, it fails, i always get a result back of empty string. Am I violating some rule about cross-site ajax calls? Can I have my server generate the observe_field code which calls a 3rd party server for ajax updates, like observe_field? Here''s my code: <%=observe_field "query_box&quo...

Hi, I need to observe a set of radio buttons but am having great trouble.

Hi all. I am trying to work with restful rails and have come across a quandry with observe_field. I basically want the observe field to call a show action on a restful controller. However I am unable to do so because I cannot get the damn thing to use the get request properly. If I use the following: <%= observe_field("project_selector", :update => "project_selector_di...

I''m sure this is a simple problem, but I''ve been working on it for a couple days and can''t seem to figure out the correct way to structure my observe_field call. The HTML and Javascript generated all appear correct, but the AJAX call is never made. Below is the code I''m using and any help would be much appreciated. models_controller.rb def display_compatible render :partial => "compatible" end ( Right now the _compatibl...

I am using observe_field on a number of multi-selects and checkbox form elements whose values would normally come in as arrays on a normal (non-Ajax) form post.
