similar to: Ajax posting?

Hi, I''ve noticed that my remote_function calls are resulting in POST requests. As a result, my routes do not apply since it does not generate a url based on the parameters, but simply posts to the raw url with post data. I want to make a GET request instead of a POST. How can I do that? Has anyone else run into this? Thanks, Ryan -- View this message in context:

I have two select menus on a line. The first updates the second: library: library_select album: album_select So when you pick a library, the album_select is automatically updated to show the relevant choices. This is done using ajax. While the ajax request is loading, I switch the album_select with a loading_select, which is a disabled select menu with only one choice:

I''ve just deployed my RoR app to a host that uses dispatch.cgi instead of Mongrel and came across this issue when using AJAX. The same issue has been highlighted a year ago, (on this list) <http:// groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_thread/thread/ 872fed1ff554c9a4> and (on Rails Trac) <http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ ticket/10365>. In short, when some browsers enact

I think I may be missing something here. I have a collection of people I want to run through. For each person I want to use AJAX to make a calculation and update the page with the results. First I tried to do this with just links, which works fine. It looks like this <% @eligible_players.each do |player| %> <tr> <td> <%= link_to_remote( player.player_name,

I have got two forms, the first is a textarea plus a link that activates some javascript to change the form, the second activates some javascript on the onchange event which changes it into a textarea form. This works in Firefox, but not in Safari. Also, I need the value which is selected. I''ve found an example that gives the parameter to the javascript, like this: <input

Hello there, So I''m still struggling with this fastcgi stuff. I''m trying to upload and process a decent sized ZIP file, but the request dies before it finishes and I get the following error: FastCGI: comm with (dynamic) server "/Users/ryan/Workspace/rails/photos/public/dispatch.fcgi" aborted: (first read) idle timeout (30 sec), referer: http://photos/album/new/4

I''m using jrails and I found when I use the authenticity_token in certain javascript calls, that the url works differently in that the paramters in the :with clause get dropped if they are in a json type syntax. Below is an example of a remote_function() call from JS that used to work fine without authenticity. When I enabled authenticity it adds the authenticity token automatically, but

Hi, I want to update a select box depending on another selected option thru ajax. Heres how I do it # _form.rhtml <select id="budget_coordinator_id" name="budget[coordinator_id]" onchange="<%= remote_function(:update => "budget_project_number", :url => { :action => :get_projects }) %>"> <%=

Hello - I am fairly new to Ruby on Rails, but feel like I am learning quick. I have what seems to be a fairly unique issue as I cannot find much out there that describes what I''m seeing. Hopefully it''s a very simple fix, and I simply can''t see the forest through all the trees! I am attempting to create 2 related drop-down lists in the same form_for, both using

I am new to rails and want to learn the ''best practices'' up front. So I have a few questions and hope someone can help: 1. Using Ajax to update a div. The remote_function must call an action on a controller. This causes me two problems: 1.a The action is only ever used by the ajax call, but can now be accessed through the browser. I want ajax to call a method/action

Hi! Wondering if anyone can tell me what''s wrong with my code? I''m trying to use the onChange event of a select list to update multiple divs... Agile Web Development with Rails (p. 403) suggests using ":complete => eval(request.responseText) instead of :update" I''ve attempted the following test code: # in the view <select name="plist",

I working on a Rails 2.2.2 app that uses jRails and any time I attempt to use a Rails ajax helper, I get the following error: index 116545 out of string with this stack trace: vendor/plugins/jrails/lib/jrails.rb:197:in `[]='' vendor/plugins/jrails/lib/jrails.rb:197:in `build_callbacks'' vendor/plugins/jrails/lib/jrails.rb:119:in `options_for_ajax''

Hi all, I''m trying to use Apache 2.0.52 and FastCGI on Mac OS 10.4.6 and I''m having some trouble. The server starts up fine, but I get the error at the bottom of this post once I make a request to the rails app. I was curious if anyone had an idea as to why it wasn''t working.

Hey - I have a few ajax calls in my app that I''m not really sure how to degrade to html. For the most part, these are functions that insert or remove elements to/from the dom. For example, I have my own edit-in-place on the data, which is called by start_edit action. This action renders an rjs template that replaces the view with an edit form. # view (partial) <tr

I''ve tried moving the code around in different ways, but so far I haven''t gotten remote_function to work for me (I''m using Rails 2.3.2 on my Mac). I want to make an AJAX call when I double-click a word on my page, and the Javascript function is being called when the ondblclick event is fired, but nothing happens when it gets to my the "new Ajax.Request" part

Hi all, I am using javascript to call an action with some parameters. In that action i decide on the basis of parameters either to render some text on that page or to re direct to some other page.
