I’ve been spending a great deal of time chasing this problem. Hopefully someone sees something obvious I’m doing wrong. Basically anytime I try to call fields_for from an RJS file or within a partial in the RJS file, I get the following error. My goal is simply to load a partial into a div. The fields in this partial require fields_for though. And that’s where the problem lies.

I''m using the fields_for helper with accepts_nested_attributes_for The System model has_many children. If I do this in my haml template: -form_for @system do |s| =s.text_field :name -s.fields_for :children do |child_fields| =child_fields.text_field :name all is fine. The fields_for iterates over all children and puts the correct data in the fields. But...what I

I love form_for, but I really hate <% form_for :person, @person, :url => {...} do |f| %> ... <%= render :partial => ''form'', :locals => {''f'' => f} ... <% end %> I''ve been thinking of instead allowing <% form_for :person, @person, :url => {...} do |f| %> ... <%= f.partial ''form''

Trunksters, I just added a couple of methods to ActionView::Base in Spec::Rails (as of r2136) that lets you do this in view examples: describe ''/things/index.html.erb'' do it "should render _thing with a collection of things" do assigns[:things] = things = [Object.new] template.expect_render(:partial => ''thing'', :collection => things)

There is a warning on the web site about expect_render and stub_render: "WARNING: expect_render and stub_render, while very useful, act differently from standard Message Expectations (a.k.a. mock expectations), which would never pass calls through to the real object. This can be very confusing when there are failures if you''re not aware of this fact, because some calls will be

Hi all! I am coding an application that keeps track of request to create college courses. An identified user (logically a faculty member) completes a form indicating the name of the course, the professor in charge, the course''s code, the date and place, the possible coprofessors and TAs and the type of website he or she wants to use as a teaching help (WebCT, Sakai, etc.). I have two

We''re encountering a failure with Mocha 0.5.6. We had this expectation: game_version.expects(:attributes=).with(:game_file => kind_of(GameFile), :game_id => @game.id) This expectation was passing with 0.5.5, but fails with 0.5.6. I added this test to parameter_matcher_acceptance_test.rb, which passes in 0.5.5 and fails in 0.5.6 def test_should_match_nested_parameters

Hi I have a couple of questions 1) how do you test the response inside a content_for block I see reference to it in the release notes but dont know where to find it (tried http://rspec.info/rdoc-rails/ ) 2) I dont seem to be able to stub partials in a different directory eg <%= render :partial => "foos/show" %> And I put this in the spec template.stub_render(:partial =>

Hello :) I have a problem with the Net::HTTP library... The Net::HTTP library [1] uses a Net::HTTPResponse object for all it''s responses from web servers. This class has many subclasses, such as HTTPSuccess, HTTPRedirecttion, etc. When obtaining a response, the library suggests to check what it is by testing the class of the returned object - using case/when or kind_of? (which it does

Hi, I read some articles about why partials should not have instance variables in them. But in "Ruby on Rails 3 Tutorial" the author starts with this partial: View: <%= form_for(@user) do |f| %> <%= render ''shared/error_messages'' %> Partial: <% if @users.errors.any? %> ... ... I thought removing the @user instance variable from the partial

I''m trying to build something similar to a Facebook messaging app, in which the view displays all the messages for a particular thread, with a form box for replying at the bottom of the thread. The problem is that using fields_for generates form fields for each existing record, and for one new record. In this case, there is no need to edit existing messages - just a need to add new

Is it possible to pass this FormBuilder object to a controller and then back to a partial? I have a form rendering a partial that i would like to update with a call to my controller based on user selectable parameters, but when the AJAX comes back, i get this error message because i cannot pass a form builder object between the controller and the view: "undefined method

Hi, I want to extend formbuilder to make it output a lable (I know about labeled_form_helper made by technoweenie), my own formating, and a couple of extra tags inside the form attribute. I was easily able to extend form_remote_to. But when I continue to adjust the way elements are handled I don''t know how to continue. I can''t find the method text_field thats should is

Hello, I think this is an easy one for the average Rails developer but I''m a bit stuck. I''m creating a simple voting app: any user can create a survey, with any number of questions, and other users can then vote by creating a ballot for that survey. Here''s the modeling: class Survey < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :questions has_many :eligibilities has_many

In the API docs I found this: "You can also build forms using a customized FormBuilder class. Subclass FormBuilder and override or define some more helpers, then use your custom builder " I couldn''t find any further documentation on this. Where can I read more about this formbuilder class? For starters, where would I define a subclass of this class? TIA, Jeroen --

Hello all, I''m getting this weird ''<input name value=''2'' type=''hidden'' />'' text printed out in my form. See attached image. I''ve spent too much time trying to figure it out already and it''s not going to stop me from moving on for now. As you can see it''s still very early on. I''m using
