similar to: periodically_call_remote and update element

My application has multiple things on the interface that need to be updated periodically. Some things every second, others not so much. Some of these things are global, meaning they are on the interface at all times, and some of these things are view specific. So what I figured I would do is add the periodically_call_remote function for the global elements and another one for the view

I''m not sure how to ask this succinctly, so bear with me. I''m trying to learn how to use periodically_call_remote to update a div. I have a table whose rows have the data I want to display in the div, one at a time, every 10 seconds (let''s say). For simplicity let''s pretend each row just has one column, "description," which is just a text

Hi, I''m new to Ruby on Rails (and Ruby itself). So far, I''ve been able to find answers to most of my questions in the docs or mailing lists. One thing I haven''t been able to find the answer to is how to stop a periodically_call_remote call. My first Rails app is going to be a front-end for our Ant-based build system at work. While the build is running,

Hi, I am still new to RoR, so please bear with this newbie question. I would like to have the application in view to press result back to the controller when the periodically_call_remote is called. Right now, this is the code in the view: <div id="get_result"></div> <%= periodically_call_remote(:update => ''get_result'',

Hi, I''m using Rails 1.1 and the periodically_call_remote() helper to query the server for the progress of a long running action. I''m using the excellent new RJS partials to send a page.replace_html() to update the status information on the page--which works very well. When the action completes I''m also trying to send a redirect_to() by the same approach--which

I posted this ealier on the web forums but noticed a similar question about this function and one user responded to try this list instead. If anyone can help I would greatly appreciate your suggestions. Q: Is there a way to use periodically_call_remote to run just one time instead of every '':frequency'' seconds? I tried putting the call inside the div container thinking it

My ajax-application have folowing behaviour: Just 1 page loaded with 1st request and all other content always loaded into special DIV using ajax when user clicked menuitems. On some "pages" I using ''periodically_call_remote'', but I can''t STOP it! Simple example: View: <div id="view"> <%= link_to_remote ''Stop tracking'',

Is there a way to use periodically_call_remote to run just one time instead of every '':frequency'' seconds? I tried putting the call inside the div container thinking it would be overwritten when the first remote call replaced the div contents but no such luck. I''d basically like to simulate link_to_remote but not require a click and have it performed automatically

Is there a way to only run periodically_call_remote when a condition is true? I essentially want the ability to start and stop periodically_call_remote, based on a user initiated action. Thanks, John Cole

Hi, I have a search box (id=:phrase) on my rails ajax page. I want a periodically call remote poller to update a div whenever the value in that box changes. On the page containing the search box, I have the following: <%= periodically_call_remote(:url => update_query_topics_url, :with => "$(''phrase'').serialize()", :frequency => 1.0)%> I have also

When I do periodically_call_remote with e.g. :frequency => 30 after initial page load I have to wait 30 seconds until this partial renders first time. Does anybody know how to make ROR to render partial on web page load, and then start periodic calls every 30 seconds? I tried to put <div id=''mydiv''><%= render(:partial, :action=>''myaction'')

I need make progress bar with following function: # Ruby on Rails code <%= periodically_call_remote(:update => ''progress-bar'', :url => { :action => :progress }, :frequency => 0.1 , :complete => "check(request)") %> How I can stop it? If I have this: /* JavaScript code */ function check(request, object) { if (request.responseText ==

Whenever I use periodically_call_remote it outputs as the following: <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ new PeriodicalExecuter(function() {new Ajax.Request(''some_url'', {asynchronous:true, evalScripts:true})}, 2) //]]> </script> If I understand correctly, setting asynchronous to true means that if one request takes longer than 2 seconds,

Is there any way to change the frequency of a running periodically_call_remote without having to reload the whole page? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

As Bert said, redefining functions like "[" is surely inadvisable, because of possibility of breaking codes that depend on the intended behavior. This is a language _feature_. If the problem is indexing beyond array extent, just check for it: Are any values that are going to be used for indexing larger than the length of the object? E.g., if (any(idx > length(x)))

Hey all, I''ve recently started messing around with Prototype again, so I thought I''d start small and write 5 lines of code that would check if all fields in a form are filled out. So I thought document.observe(''dom:loaded'', function() { $(''submNewUser'').disable(); new Form.Observer($(''newUser''), 0.3, function(e, val) {

Hey everybody, it would be really appreciate if you knew the solution to the following problem. I am trying to load data from the internet into R without having to save them. However, I need to acess a different website for each dataset. So I want to alternate an element in the URL. Eventually, I want to fill a 3 dimensional matrix/array where each slice is a two-dimensional matrix from the

Hey all, I''m not sure if IE can support this, but I''m trying to get the dimensions of an element that has percentages for height/width. In the example code below, I''m trying to get the dimensions for the ''MyCell'' element. Firefox supports Element.getDimensions(''MyCell''), but IE returns 0 for the height & width returned by that
