Rails newbie, thanks for help with this hopefully basic JSON type question.... I have a model Books in my app, which belong_to users. What''d I''d like to learn how to do, is use jQuery to get a JSON object of the books that the user owns (current_user). And then use jQuery to list the results out on a div (id=targetdiv).

Hi, I am using JQuery in my rails app. I''ve taken the approach outlined in Ryan Bates''s Railscast on jquery to do the following: jQuery.ajaxSetup({ ''beforeSend'' : function(xhr) {xhr.setRequestHeader("Accept", "text/javascript")} }); to set my ajax call request Headers to text/javascript so that my respond to block for javascript is

Hi, guys, I''m in the midst of moving an app from rails 2.3.8 to rails 3.0.9. Sadly, rails 3 no longer has javascript generators and I''m now forced to do more javascript. For my project, I have selected jQuery as the javascript framework for my rails 3.0.9 app. What I have done to have my app''s deletion link (for each item) trigger an alert box when the deletion

Hi all, I''m using Rails 3.0, and I have a model which validates if the attribute :name is present. On my my views, I use Jquery to submit the form which creates the model.

I''ve been writing a gem to implement and extend common controller functionality so that Rails can be used with Javascript frameworks like AngularJS (which we are using), Ember.js, etc. in such a way that the user doesn''t have to tweak a a bunch of rails g controller boilerplate code to provide services for use in these frameworks that in turn would require various changes to

Hello everyone, I''m a newbie at Ruby on Rails. I spent nearly two days of the Memorial Day weekend stumbling upon making Ajax working in Rails. At this point, I''m so exhausted and hope that I can get some help to move forward. I have tried nearly everything I found on Google but still not successful. Initially, I tried the Ajax approach offered by Rails but did not work, so I

I refered to http://railsdog.com/blog/2011/02/28/callbacks-in-jquery-ujs-in-rails3/ in hope of getting json data from my controller and displaying it in my view when an ajax request is made. I followed the instructions on the http://railsdog.com/blog/2011/02/28/callbacks-in-jquery-ujs-in-rails3/ and even corresponded with the author and also implemented his ''fix'' in

Hey, I was thinking I''d have my controllers do double-duty: the same actions handling json and html requests differentially. For this, it''s useful that Rails 3.2 automatic params hash conversion from json work (as described here<http://guides.rubyonrails.org/v3.2.13/action_controller_overview.html#json-xml-parameters>in the Rails docs). (I''m using ruby 1.9.2.)

When I create a new engine in Rails 3.1 stable and then access the dummy app or the engine I get an error say that the app can''t find jquery. I''ve created the engine using rails plugin new coffee --mountable I''ve also created a basic controller in the engine and the dummy app. If I remove the javascript include tag, everything works.

I''ve the following situation (which actually works in Rails 2.3.8 and this is a result of the migration of our app to rails3): I have a partial which is rendered a few times (imagine tr''s in a table).

Hello, I''m able to create and send a JSON object like so: @mylist << { :id => item.id, :name => name.id } render :json => { :result => ''success'', :mylist => @mylist } That works great. Problem I''m having now is that I need to include users which can be 1 or users per item. @mylist << {

Hi all, I''m trying to work out how to get started using some jQuery in my rails app. rails -v = 3.2.2 ruby -v = 1.9.3-p194 I''m only sporadically a web-developer, and still quite inexperienced with jQuery especially, so I may be making an obvious mistake. Essentially, I''ve done very little after creating a new app, I''ve learnt that jQuery is included by
