What is the rails idiom for submit buttons on forms? All other field types have helpers, but button_to creates its own form, so should not be used. I''ve looked in "Agile Web Dev. with Rails" but can''t see what I should do instead. Is this "difficult" because it runs counter to AJAX type forms? And, related, is there a way to ensure that hitting return in

When i use button_to or link_to, i can easily request a confirmation dialog with (for example) <%= button_to "Delete this story", { :controller => "story", :action => "delete", :id => @story.id }, :confirm => "Delete story: are you sure?" %> I also want to do this for the submit buttons on my forms, which are

Hi, I have a page containing 3 views (2 are partials). One of the partials needs to have a button that will clear a table called "messages" in the database.

With form_tag submit buttons I use the " :disable_with => ''button label while processing'' " option so that visitors with slow connections aren''t able to submit forms twice. How do I do the same thing with button_to? I''ve got several pages where there are multiple forms on the page being updated with Ajax so I can''t wrap the whole

Hallo -- is there a way anyone know of that I can add a :confirm clause to a form submit? Something like: <%= submit_tag ''commit'', :confirm=>"are you certain?" %> Does anyone know how to achieve this? Cheers, doug. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I attached a rails helper implementation of the fb_table described here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Styles I included testing and comments. I hope you find it useful. Curiously, it''s really a small extension of FBML. Richard -------------- next part -------------- Index: test/rails_integration_test.rb

How can i use the submit_tag method (from: actionView::FormTagHelper) to create various submit buttons and chose the right action in accord to the button that i pushed? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I would really appreciate some help with changing a link_to_remote call to a button of some sort. Here''s a little background. On the page there are two <div>s. One is a form that lets the visitor enter items. The second <div> is where the entered items get displayed, each in it''s own item <div>. Each item <div> has two <span>s. The first one

Hi, How do i differentiate different submits tags / buttons on one form. Say I want to create an edit form and I want to provide two buttons; one to save and one to cancel. I would have: <%= submit_tag ''Ok'' %> <%= submit_tag ''Cancel'' %> How do I know which button get pressed by the user? One more thing, how to specify the default selection in a

Hello * Obviously the rhtml below does not work, but it should be apparent what I try to achieve - I would like to give the user the choice to submit a form either to action1 or action2 but I cannot figure out how?! It would be great if someone could give some assistance. Thanks a lot, Alex <%= start_form_tag :action1 => ''save'', :action2 =>

Hiall, I want to give the action of a form an additional parameters but can''t figure out how to do it. My code looks like this <%= start_form_tag :action => ''create'', next_step => true %> <%= render :partial => ''user_form'' %> <%= render :partial => ''community_form'' %> <%= submit_tag

Hi, I''d like to make the :confirm option in my link_to/button_to erb elements conditional. So, if the page is in some state, no confirmation is requested, but not otherwise, etc. So far, my only (ugly) approach is to replace the linker html itself depending on changes in state, but I believe there must be an easier way to ''toggle'' the confirmation option on/off. Can

For a regular form I use the :onlick option to disable the submit button after the first click in order to prevent double clicks (leading to double entries): <% form_tag :action => ''create'' do %> <%= submit_tag "Create", :onclick => "this.disabled=true,this.form.submit();"%> I''m having trouble using this same method to prevent

I looked everywhere but couldn''t find it. I don''t want a submit_tag or image_submit_tag but a normal link that submits my form. Normally I would do this with a javascript like function sendForm () { document.forms[0].submit(); } but this doesn''t work with form_remote_tag link_to_function( ''Send'' , "sendform();") So the question is:

I''ve changed my destructive link_to statements in favor of button_to. But what if I want to make an .rjs call with that button? Seems like we need something equivalent to link_to_remote, so that the button can make an ajax request instead submitting the form. Or am I missing the point entirely?

This code disables the ''Save'' button once clicked, but doesn''t seem to send the form data. <%= submit_tag ''Save'', :class => ''submit'', :onclick => "document.getElementById(''save_button'').disabled=true;", :id => "save_button" %> This code sends the form data and a record is created,

Hi: does button_to_function allow the use of an image? I tried it in place of the text with "image_tag" and it doesn''t work. Maybe some form of button_to? Any direction you can give would be great!

All, I want to do an AJAX request using a custom image button. I currently have this as a standard button action using "button_to". What I need is the button equivalent of "link_to_remote". Is there a helper that I can use, or do I need to build it by hand? I see button_to_function(), but that sets me up to call a Javascript function, not post to a Rails action. Or can

Hi Gurus, I''m learning the Rails framework, and I have this exact block of html/javascript in two places in an if/else construct in application.html.erb: <body onload="Modalbox.show(''<div class=\''warning\''> <p> <center> <%= flash[ :notice ] %> </center> </p> <p> <center> <input
