Hi all, I''m submitting a form using jQuery, but in the respond_to block only the format.html action is called. This is the javascrip: send_button.on(''click'', function(){ var form = $(this).closest(''.modal'').find(''form''); $.post(''/messages'', form.serialize(), function(data, status, xhr){

Still a semi-newbie, but so far I''ve managed to solve most things with a bit of help from the Agile book, some googling around, and a bit of trial-and-error, but I''m really stuck with this one (very much an Ajax newbie): I know how to gracefully degrade an AJAX newpost type call so it can appear inline or (for those without JS support) go to a new page (put an ":href

Searched around this forum, but didn''t find an answer for this question. Can you help this newbie understand any overlap and/or difference between request.xhr? and respond_to?

Hi, I have been reading a lot about this, but I do not manage to do a nice validation. I already managed to save data to the database, to validate a field, to display a "Everything went well" message. I can also display an error message, but the view does not end up properly. This is the form: <% remote_form_for(product) do |f| %> <%= f.error_messages %> <p>

I''m trying to use respond_to to redirect visitors who have JS turned off to a different page. The problem I''m having is that respond_to is sending *everybody* there. It''s not recognizing that JS is turned on in the browser. The wanted_html.rhtml file below is rendered whether I''ve got JS turned on or off. I''ve looked at the Accept headers being sent

I''m trying to use jQuery to write all my js unobtrusively, and running into a bit of a problem when triggering the format.js block in IE6 (and possibly IE7). It returns the JSON string no problem, but instead of parsing it, IE6 asks to download the resource as a .js file. So if my url is ''/pictures/1.js'', IE6 will ask to save or run ''1.js'' I did do

There''s nothing like pushing a new major update in order to find bugs in the code when its exposed to a couple of hundred working applications. Thankfully the fixes were almost as swift as the reports. In any case, you''ll _definitely_ want to upgrade to 0.12.1 right away.

Hi, I am trying to use form_remote_tag to update a record and then update the section of the page where id=''opertion_panel''. There is a javascript validation that validates the input before the record is being updated. This validation works and the record was successfully updated.
