Hey, I have existing threads with two fields: title and text. When a user clicks "edit", I say, in the new thread form: <% form.text_area :text, :value => params[:text] %> params[:text] = the text in the thread which the user wants to edit. It works fine most of the time, but if I made a new thread and had linebreaks, clicking edit fails. New form: text: sdfjksdfj sdfjsdf

Hi all, I have tracked an odd behavior down to what I think is an issue of scope. In short, when I use form_remote_tag to establish an AJAX form, my database fields don''t get populated when performing an edit on the record. Those same fields will get populated using start_form_tag and no AJAX. I think that Ruby can''t find the local object that represents the database

In a panel, I have an hidden input field which is modified by a javascript function (from calendar) how can I sent the value of this input field in my link_to_remote call ? presently I just send back one parameter (an id) but I need both... <input type="hidden" name="booking[start_at]" id="f_date_s" value="booking[start_at]" /> ... <%=

I''m trying to show a preview of the comments, and I''m saving the comments through AJAX. So, I thought that I should be able to mimic the "comments" action for the "comments_preview" action very easily. So far, this isn''t the case. I have a link_to_remote tag inside of the form tag, and I don''t know how to send the parameters that are

I''m playing around with Markaby and I decided to write a little blog app. I''m running into issues with forms however. If I use form_for the output of the form gets swallowed. For example: form_for :article, @article do |f| f.text_field :title f.check_box :published f.text_area :description f.text_field :pub_date f.text_area :content end gets rendered as an empty form

Hi, I need a way to read a form field and pass its contents as a parameter to a link_to_remote call. So let''s say I have a textarea input: <%= text_area ''course'', ''topics'', :rows => 6, :cols => 60 %> and later a link_to_remote: <%= link_to_remote("Hide", { :update => ''my div'',

Sorry for the long explanation but I''m having trouble integrating rjs into my form page. Here''s my page: <div id="posts"> <ul id="post_list"><%= render :partial => ''list_results'', :collection => @posts %></ul> <p><%= link_to_remote(''+'', :url => {:action =>

Hi! I have a "text_area" that looks like this... <%= text_area ''business'', ''otherDigitalDesc'', "cols" => 25, "rows" => 4, "value" => "Enter Description if Yes..." %> Right now, if I submit it, it adds "Enter Description if Yes" into the database. It would be nice to not have it enter

Hi everyone, Newbie here. I''m trying to get a textual form element to submit in the context of a form_remote_tag block and having little success. Oddly (or perhaps not), using regular old form_tag in its place does cause the elements to be submitted. Here''s the relevant partial ERb code: <%= form_remote_tag( { :url => { :action => :out, :id => pending_task } } )

I have some code that calls a partial to display one or more blocks within a div tag. I want to have a close button (or cancel link) that will fade that block but leave the others. Here is the code: LINK: <%= link_to_remote "Add Miscellaneous Link", :url => { :action => :add_iyc_link } %> add_iyc_link.rjs: page.insert_html :bottom, ''links'', :partial

I''m having a problem getting the text area the size I want it to be. In my view at the top I have this init calls <script type="text/javascript" > tinyMCE.init({ mode: "textareas", theme: ''advanced'', theme_advanced_toolbar_location: ''top'' }); </script> Then in my form: <%= text_area

Hi all, I''ve been trying to figure this out by myself and while I feel I''ve made some progress, I feel kind of stuck. Let me see if I can explain what I''m trying to do. I have a very simple form with a text box and a text area. The text in each of these will eventually make it into a row in a table in my database. For now, the value in the text box represents a

After looking at the link_to_remote tag for the first time, I found it broke when javascript was disabled. Below is one possible solution I found and would like to suggest that this idea is promoted into rails. # # provide fix for link_to_remote tag when javascript is not enabled def link_to_remote_fix(text, options) link_to_remote text, options, :href => url_for(

I have an issue with line break handling. When I display contents of a textarea, I use nl2br to show linebreaks that the user has made. The problem comes the second time they make an edit, since the <br> code still appears in the inPlaceEdit box... which will no doubt confuse my users...
