what is the correct syntax for changing an effect like :highlight? i tried looking through the api, and found it, but i can''t seem to get it right. i want to change the start color of visual_effect(:highlight, ''user-list''). i tried visual_effect(:highlight, ''user-list'', :startcolor = ''#990000'') and several other variations of

I have some code that will do the highlight, fade effect on a block of text. It seems to work just fine until it is fired multiple times very rapidly. The end color matches a grey background and the start color is a yellow. Say its run 4 times a second for 3-5 seconds. When the flashing catches up the text will fade for the last time to the end color, then the background will switch to a

Mike and I demo an Ajaxified version of the Depot application in the Rails Studio. Part of the demo is a cart in the sidebar which updates when you add a product to it. As well as updating the div, it also highlights the most recently added link item. Right now, we do it with: <script language="JavaScript"> function flash_cart(request) { var id =

I was going to change the background of a div from white to red and then from red back to white, so this is used in an RJS file: page[:vote_score].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => ''#ffffff'', :endcolor => ''#ffcccc'' page[:vote_score].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => ''#ffcccc'', :endcolor =>

Hi, I''ve got a real head-scratcher. I''ve got a standard Ajax form using form_remote_tag, which calls a controller action which adds a comment and then sends back some JS via RJS which updates a few items on the page. It did work fine but (and I''ve no idea what has happened) now it doesn''t. It calls the controller action but gets an empty response back and

Hi, I''m trying to convert an older Rails application to use Ajax. I''ve already moved my edit and show actions so that, instead of displaying as separate pages, they appear in a <div> on my list view. However, I have two problems: 1) When the user saves the changes, I want to put all the ajax changes in an RJS template. However, form_remote_tag :url =>{:action =>

In my RJS template this works: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5} but not this: page.visual_effect :highlight, "test#{@test.id}", {:duration => 5, :startcolor => "#FFFFFF"} Am I misunderstanding how to pass in additional parameters? _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list

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. Basically the comment gets added, but the visual effects do not work (ie lines 2 + 3 of create.rjs) create.js page.insert_html :bottom, ''comments'', :partial => ''comment'' page.visual_effect :appear, "comment_#{@comment.id}"

i''ve just installed the RJS plugin per cody''s instructiuons and read through tutorials. I''ve made the necessary changes to my existing code and everything appears to be working, except that the returned javascript is not being evaluated... here''s my setup: i have a checkbox with an onclick event pointing to a javascript function. this javascript function does

This is my code: <%= form_remote_tag :url => { :action => "forgot_account" }, :update => "result", :complete => visual_effect(:highlight, "result", :duration => 2, :startcolor => "#c8e673", :endcolor => "#9db55d") %> If I remove colors to the effect everything works, but with this code it renders on another

Hi - another question, sorry.... I''m trying to get the highlighting effect to work on the current_item. The page refreshes fine, and then I get an error as the highlighting code is fired: page[:current_item].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => "#88ff88", :endcolor => "#114411" The error

I''m trying to implement a remove from cart method based on the examples in the second edition Agile book. I have everything working except for the RJS that removes items from the cart. Ideally what I''d like to do is highlight an element that I am deleting only if there is more than one of that particular item in the cart. If the item deleted is the only of

Is there a way to toggle an effect in an RJS? If not, anyone have recommendations for how to manually make it toggle? I guess I would assume some boolean that the rjs checks everytime it''s called and depending on whether it''s true or false it will do page.visual_effect :appear or page.visual_effect :hide -Ben Lisbakken -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I just upgraded Ruby to 1.8.4 and Rails to 1.1 and I''m in the middle of changing my Javascript code over to the Scriptaculous helper functions. page.visual_effect :highlight, "some_div" seems to be broken. Instead of fading, the background color of the element stays highlighted. page.visual_effect works for other effects, though. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via

I have a difficult using Ajax and wondered whether anyone has the expertise to advise me how to proceed? 1. We start at edit - this calls a partial form, which then calls a series of partials (which themselves call partials sometimes). If we take the case of features, the form goes: edit - _form - _features - _feature 2. Updates are made in the controller, then there is a re-direct to

Hi, Problem Summary: I have been trying to add the highlight effect to my table but everytime a new record is added the highlighting gives an rjs error. However when i click the add to cart button on a product that already exists inside the table, the highlight effect works. Is this because the partial must only have only one <tr></tr> in it and the <table> must be on the other

Hi, I''ve searched the list and found that someone had the same problem as me http://lists.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2006-May/043760.html I''m have in my page a link like this <%= link_to_remote ("Add #{image_tag(''add.png'')}",:url=>{:action=>''addProduct''})%> and in my controller def addProduct ..................

Sorry, but this is a big one - after adding the Ajax portion of the Agile Web Development tutorial my page displays: Application error Change this error message for exceptions thrown outside of an action (like in Dispatcher setups or broken Ruby code) in public/500.html It started when I added - page[:current_item].visual_effect :highlight, :startcolor => "#88ff88" , :endcolor =>

Hi, I have a link_to_remote name ''Show notes'', which calls an action that uses this RJS template: page.replace "notes_remote", :partial => "notes/hide_notes_link" page.insert_html :top, "notes_list", :template => "notes/list" page.visual_effect :highlight, ''notes_list'', :duration => 3 Works great.
