similar to: Ajax inserting a collection of partials

I''ve got a form on my page, and when the user submits it, sometimes I''d like to update an element on my page, and sometimes I''d like to redirect the browser to another url entirely. However if I do redirect_to, it just updates the element with the results of the redirect. Is it possible to do what I want, or will I need to use RJS to do this? Pat

I am using rails 3. I have problem in out put so please tell me my mistake routes ------- entermatch ''/view_article/:user_id/:article_id'' => ''articles#view_article'', :as => :view_article resources :users do resources :articles do resources :comments end end article controller ------------------ def view_article @user =

First off, I''m fairly new to ruby on rails so this may appear simple but I''m just learning the ropes :) So I have a simple blog app where a post has many comments. The ''show'' view for posts renders a partial for each comment the post has. The css class of the containing div element is cycled using cycle(). The partial code is, <% div_for(comment, :class

Hi, When a user adds a comment i want to add the comment to the end of the comments list using ajax so there is no full page refresh. The code i have below adds the comment to the database but doesn''t update the comments div with the new comment. Can anyone help? This is my first use of rjs templates and i have read http://www.codyfauser.com/articles/2005/11/20/rails-rjs-templates

Has anyone had trouble with inline RJS insert_html with the latest version of Rails? My problem is that insert_html inserts the html fragment twice. For example, render :update do |page| page.insert_html :top, "some_list", "<li>booyow</li>" end would render "<li>booyow</li>" twice. Thanks. -- Posted via

How to i return a comment thats is in the comment template and add it to the bottom of the page. I have gotten as far as rendering some text back to the form and the comment doesn''t display until i refresh. This is my _newcomment.rhtml form to create a new comment <div

Struggling a bit with rendering a partial in an RJS template. I''m having to feed the javascript directly to the page object as couldn''t find a way to have insert_html work directly on the proxy object returned by select. However, that''s not the problem. The code for doing that is below and it all works fine, except that a new line is being inserted after the

Sorry for the long explanation but I''m having trouble integrating rjs into my form page. Here''s my page: <div id="posts"> <ul id="post_list"><%= render :partial => ''list_results'', :collection => @posts %></ul> <p><%= link_to_remote(''+'', :url => {:action =>

Hi all! I am coding an application that keeps track of request to create college courses. An identified user (logically a faculty member) completes a form indicating the name of the course, the professor in charge, the course''s code, the date and place, the possible coprofessors and TAs and the type of website he or she wants to use as a teaching help (WebCT, Sakai, etc.). I have two

Hi, looking to see if I''m on the right track here... we''re selling widgets to customers, but there are a number of different type of widgets and each different type of widget has a number of parameters that the customer can specify, in effect each customer orders widget''s customised in ways particular to that specific order. We use STI to store each different widget

Hi! I can use RJS in views like this (without using ajax): <%=link_to_function("switch fields", update_page do |page| page.insert_html :before, ''date'', date_select(''exhibition'', ''date'') page.remove ''date'' end) %> Is there a way to move this RJS code into a function to separate file? .js files are not parsed

I mentioned this in another thread, but I''ve got a formal request now. After reading tons of stuff about REST, I don''t really get it. I need to see an example. I''d like someone to write up an example blog app with these requirements - RESTful using the simply_restful plugin (or edge rails) - allows posting of comments to articles - has categories for posts No need

Do I need to spec an AR. If yes, what is the best way to spec this. here is the code - def index @deals = Deal.paginate(:all, :conditions => prepare_search_conditions, :order => ''created_at DESC'', :page => params[:page] ) if request.xhr? render :update do |page| page.replace_html "table", :partial =>

I want to use ActiveResource in my app. Instead of hitting server though, I want it to load from a file when I call find. Any clue how I do that? Pat

I''ve seen a number of posts where someone says, "What happens if you just run dispatch.fcgi directly?" Every time I do it, I get a "500: internal server error" message. I was just curious if that''s what''s expected running it directly. I assume so, because my apps all work fine, but that''s always bugged me. Pat

I have several places in my app where there is a collection with hundreds of items to render. Paging in the usual sense (i.e., mislav-will_pagination) does not make sense. I want to render them all, but the long response time (often greater than 7 seconds) is not user-friendly. It occurs to me that I can batch them, sending a batch with a bit of Javascript at the bottom to pull in the next

I''ve been banging my head against the wall trying to update a table (add/delete rows) using Ajax. It seems simple enough but just doesn''t work for me. I can get it to work using DIVs instead of a table, but doing the layout with DIVs is much more cumbersome and I know it works for others with a table (though I haven''t been able to find an exact example code anywhere).

After retrieving a URL using an Ajax.Request... function onComplete (request, json) { // request.responseText holds the entire page Only the content contained in elementID = ''source'' is intended for display At this time, the following code works, but it disturbingly copies the entire page from the source URL into the target DIV $(''target'').innerHTML =

I''m trying to add an RSS feed to my app, and am going through the Rails Recipes chapter on doing so. I get the following error when I request the feed: undefined method `gmtime'' for #<DateTime: 1963061961/800,0,2299161> ... 7: xml.pubDate CGI.rfc1123_date(@posts.first.created_on) Any idea what''s up?
