Hi all, I was looking at this ticket: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/6265 and it got me thinking: is there any reason we''re not using the tasty ActiveSupport::JSON encoder to assemble options for the various helper methods in PrototypeHelper and ScriptaculousHelper? At the moment, they use options_for_javascript() in JavaScriptHelper, which is a half-hearted JSON generator that doesn''t handle strings vs. literals very well, let alone nested hashes, arrays, etc. The result is a bunch of scattered JSON-generating code in the in...

I''ve started an app with rails 1.1.6 then ran freeze_edge. My app will not run with rails in the vendor folder. Have I forgot to do something? I"ve been without the internet for the last two months. Has something changed?

Hi, I''m trying to have a checkbox, that when clickes sends an update to the server and in turn modify the UI with feedback on the success of the operation. The main difficulty I''m encountering is that I can''t pass the checkbox value if I use the standard PrototypeHelpers. I''m using remote_function to build the function call, but it doesn''t allow me to pass the "this.checked" from the combo to the server. As far as I understand, the url should be written in the javascript as "/item/5/"+this.checked, but since the url is bui...

In my rjs template I''m using the following line. page.visual_effect :slideUp, ''comment_error_details'', :duration => 0.5 It works fine if I have created the div with the id="comment_error_details", but if I haven''t created the error yet then my whole rjs template fails.

I''m trying to figure out how to best allow a user to click a link_to_remote (or something like it) that will make the clicked thing disappear and replace it with a "Saving..." or "Please wait..." image until the server round-trip is complete. Once complete, it needs to replace the HTML in that span or div with text from the server. I imagine it will involve

Hi, I am calling an action via AJAX to update a div. The action needs to redirect the page in under certain circumstances. However, if I just use "redirect_to" in the action then of course what happens is that the page I want to redirect to replaces only the div, not the entire page, and I get messy nested layouts. Is there a way around this? Can I redirect the entire document from

Hi, I''m confused about how form verification with AJAX works. Let''s say I have a ''new.rhtml'' view that contains a form with two fields, and the form action is ''create''. Let''s assume that I also want to do some type of data validation on one of the two fields via AJAX before I submit the form. But since I''ve already

Hi, If I want to have helper method for my rjs, where''s the best place to put it? so for example: --- bla.rjs: page.replace_html ... page.visual_effect ... --- somewhere: (currently I put in application_helper.rb) def replace_with_effect(page) page.replace_html ... page.visual_effect ... end --- bla.rjs: replace_with_effect page and is there a way to define the helper so we

I''ve created a one-line table of input fields above my table to accept filter criteria like this... <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %> &nbsp; <form name="sform" action="" style="display:inline;"

Is it possible to have more than one kind of view for a specific action, for example an .rhtml and a .rjs file to handle the view for the same action? I suspect not, but this makes me wonder if there a way to call the .rjs file from within the .rhtml so the statements within it get executed? Thanks, Andy

Railsoids: FormTestHelper rules. It tests your response.body form at the same time as it triggers your action, with all the parameters in that form. This obviously improves quality. But it took issue with this: submit_form ''validate_stuff'' do |form| form[''IBhidden''] = ''validate'' end The field IBhidden is a hidden field. To be
