similar to: Unobtrusive Javascript for Rails

What if...you could produce accessible, unobtrusive javascript, using Rails built-in javascript/prototype helpers, with just one extra line of code in your layout, a plugin, and one small enhancement to the helpers. Something like this: [php] <% form_remote_tag :controller => ''foo'', :action => ''bar'', :unobtrusive => true %> # which produces

Dan Webb (http://www.vivabit.com) and I are happy to announce the latest release of the Unobtrusive Javascript plugin for Rails. This release packs in lots of cool new features, a few changes to old ones and some performance enhancements. Now you can write your behaviours in Ruby, attach behaviours directly to elements using content_tag and apply behaviours to elements without HTML IDs.

Hi, I downloaded the unobtrusive_javascript pluing from this link (http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/index.php/2006/06/06/introducing-unobtrusive-javascript-for-rails/) since I needed to have dynamic content in javascript (for a pop-up menu). Unfortunately I have been unable to make the plugin work. I followed the instructions on the website, but for some reason the javascript doesn?t work (for

assert_tag smells bad. Hpricot smells nice (apricotty!).

Since upgrading to 1.1.3 on our dev box, we''ve started to see random routing errors with our apps running under Mongrel in production mode. The errors seem to go away after a while but come back everytime we restart the server. This may be a mongrel problem, it may be a rails problem (I''ve posted a bug on the trac) and I was wondering if anybody else had had similar

Hello! I just read DHH''s presentation pdf. In his examples, he wrote PeopleController instead of PersonController. I''ve been using singular words in controller''s name. Which is more common? Thanks. Sam -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Don''t get me wrong, JavaScript/Ajax helpers in Rails are a huge timesaver and they have helped me to finally overcome my irrational aversion to js libraries like prototype and such. However, all this goodness seems to come at quiet a price. The resulting code is littered with inline JS, including ubiquitous script tags and onload attributes etc.. It seems that just when i found

I just coded an unobtrusive In Place Editor and wanted to get some review and comments for it. Anyone spot anything obvious that I could do to streamline this? Thanks, Walter <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> var rightClick = function(e){ Event.stop(e); var editListing = new Ajax.InPlaceEditor("listing_body",

You could also try to go with the button element since it can wrap content like images. Something like: <button name="delete"><img src="..."></button> along with some styling to your liking. -Tobias -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: rubyonrails-spinoffs-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org [mailto:rubyonrails-spinoffs@googlegroups.com] På vegne af

This is the first release of a new Ruby library for the www.bulksms.co.ukAPI which should allow simple integration of SMS functionality into your Ruby or Rails apps.

Hello, I must be doing something dumb, but here it goes... why does this work? before(:each) do @work = Work.new end #for testing validates_presence_of :title it "should require a title" do @work.title = nil @work.should_not be_valid end while this doesn''t: def valid_work_attributes { :title => "guernica", :description

Currently, pages generated by Rails tend to be sprinkled with JavaScript. This happens, because the various helper methods work only locally and simply append to the output. In order to hide the JavaScript away, rendering would probably have to be changed. A way I can think of is that a page-specific script is included in the head of the document and JavaScript code is not written to the

Random question: I''ve written a method for the String class that turns an arbitrary line of text in to an identifier, e.g.: "My, what a beautiful day!" => "my_what_a_beautiful_day" "(anb*#NF(AMNV" => "anb_NF_AMNV" We''ve got all these great names already like underscore, classify, titleize and things like that. I''d

I''m attempting to deploy a rails application using switchtower. My IT guys are refusing to give me sudo for a user changeable script. I really can''t argue with their logic. If I have sudo for a script that I can update, well, I can do most anything I want. They are suggesting I create a cgi that performs the same function. Since the cgi would run as www-data (this is a debian

How do you go about implementing and rspecing subdomains as account keys? I''m sure that this must be an issues for others as well. So I have an app using subdomains as account keys. The Application Controller sets up @current_company in a before filter. Everything is done within the context of the @current_company. After reading about Demeter''s Revenge

Hi, With so many good plugins around at the moment, I''d perhaps like to require some of these in one of my own rather than try to re-write their functionality. Is there a mechanism available for making a plugin dependent on another plugin(s)? Cheers Dan -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello, I am looking for a user test automation tool. When I say ''user'', I mean it should mimic the user interacting with the app. That ultimately boils down to a tool that drives a browser or is able to make http requests and allow us to deal easily with the responses. Our requirements are to be able to write the tests in Ruby (no need to switch to other language for test
