similar to: Can observe_field call another helper method?

I am trying to write a :with hash for the observe_field helper watching a select which was built by select_month--it contains all of the months. The current :with that I have, which works, is: :with => "month" ,which passes the updated month in the select through params[:month]. However, I need to pass the current year through params[:year], which does not change when the month

I have a template that belongs to a certain model (model A). I need to call a helper method of a different model (model B). Then I need the helper method of B to call a helper method of model C. I tried using "include" and "require" and using namespaces, but I got "undefined method". What is the way to do it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi All. I am trying to set-up observe_field so that it uses the GET method (To work with a RESTful controller). <%= link_to_remote("Test", :update => "main", :url => { :controller => "projects", :action => "show", :id => "3"}, :method => "get" ) %> <%= observe_field("project_selector", :update

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 =>

Before I waste more time trying to figure that out, I was wondering if it''s even possible? The Rails Way says that observe_field by default will trigger changes in text fields and text areas, and on clicks for radio buttons and check boxes. So perhaps I''m using the wrong tool here?

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 m using the observe_field helper with the :function attribute. If I do the following everything it works without any issue: <%= observe_field ''select_gender'', {:function => "(value == ''2'') ? $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''a boy'': $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''a

I don''t have Rails installed at the moment, I''d like to check myself, but it''s just a simple curiosity. observe_field fits into replacement tags <%= %>, which caught my attention because as far as I know it''s just javascript observing a field and should not stick anything into HTML. Is <%= merely used as an enabling method, or will there actually be

I can''t make it work. <%= text_field_tag :friend %> <%= observe_field :friend, :url => friendships_url, :on => :click %> <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %> Raises the error:Can''t find variable Form. The generated html is: <input id="friend" name="friend" type="text" /> <script

Hello, this have been debated few times in the forum but I didn''t found a satisfying solution : my problem is very simple, I have few methods dealing with cookies that are intended to be used in controllers and views. Let say I have the read_cookie() method. Because it deals with the response object putting this method in the /lib directory doesn''t fit nicely because I

We''ve been having problems writing functional tests for helper methods that rely on ActionView methods. Here''s a specific example. In application_helper.rb I''ve got a method called ''party_link()¨: def party_link(party) link_to party.full_name, { :controller => ''contacts'', :action =>

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. I understand that by using the :with => ''name'' I will get name=value in the request.raw_post however if the field I am submitting has mutliple values and the name is of the form ''name[]'', I get

I would like to have some valid mock models readily available in the helper module, but when I try to access the helper I get the error saying that the method is not found. ======= describe MembersHelper do # Helper methods can be called directly in the examples (it blocks) def valid_member_mock member = mock_model(Member) member.stub!(:first_name).and_return("Joe")

While I was trying to port one application from Rail 2 to Rails 3 I''ve noticed that helper methods used for rewriting URL paths are not called. Methods are defined in app/helpers/url_helper.rb: module UrlHelper def story_pah(story) "/story/#{story.title}" end end This method, when called inside of view instead of: story/1 creates path story/story_title. I order to

Hi, I need to observe a set of radio buttons but am having great trouble. My observe_field looks like this: <%= observe_field :user_select, :frequency => 0, :url => { :action => :admin_control } %> Now it works fine if I use a text_field like this: <%= text_field :user, :select, "size" => 20, "maxlength" => 16 %> But I want a radio button, and

I am trying to push some view logic into a helper. The thought is that this is a step towards having the business logic in the helper rather than the view. However, I''m essentially wrapping the checks around an eventual call to date_select(). The problem I''m having is that the application complains that it doesn''t know about date_select().
