I''m listing bands playing shows. I want to be able to add and sort the lineup for each show in a single form. Users select a band playing from a dropdown list, which (using Ajax) adds the band to an unordered list which they can then re-arrange. Are these any tutorials online that cover this? Or can anyone shed any light on it? I''ve used a modified version of Cody Fausers code

Guys, I searched this forum and found plenty of people having this problem, but I didn''t see any definitive solution. Usings Rails 1.0.

Hey everybody! I was just wondering if Rails'' javascript library includes something as simple as making a dropdown that jumps to the link when selected without needing a "submit" button. I see a bunch of AJAX effects and draggable-element stuff, but all i need is a simple dropdown... should I code it myself? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have something that somewhat works, but I think there is probably a much easier way to do it. As of now, I have the dropdown list which when the form is submitted is handed to a controller method which basically I have my dropdown box: <%=

There can be several subs on each project and each sub can work on several projects. I have my join table set up and has_and_belongs_to_many in both models. If I manually put data in the join table, this works in my show view: <% for subcontractor in

I have a collection of products that I am showing in a dropdown. Now at the first view it will show only first 10 products in the dropdown with an option "more..." at last. if user clicks the "more..." he can see all the following products in that dropdown list (this is not any ajax request, just javascript show/hide). Of course the more... option will hide when showing all

I''ve been trying to find the "right" way to do this and I''m now appealing to the Rails masses. :) I want to list all the directory names in a specific location and have just the directory names appear in a dropdown control for the user.

Hello, I'm very much a newbie in R and more so in tcltk so apologies if this question is stupid. Basically I am trying to use the combobox example found here: http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/DropDown.html . What I want to do is in that example get fruitChoice as a variable in R in general. When I run that code, however, and the ask for fruitChoice it says

Hey All, I have two tables.. One belongs to another. Why can''t I reference table1.table2.attribute?
