I AM TRYING TO MAKE A DAMN TOGGLE BOX, BUT USING MY OWN GRAPHIC AND HAVING THE MOUSECLICK TRIGGER BOTH SWITCHING THE GRAPHIC (via AJAX) AND SAVING THE STATE IN THE DATABASE. I GOT IT ALL WORKING WITH NORMAL HTML GET CALLS TO THE SERVER, BUT I NEED IT TO BE AJAXIFIED SO THAT THE PAGE DOESN''T RELOAD. AND TO COMPLICATE MATTERS, IT HAS TO WORK IN A TABLE WITH AN ARBITRARY NUMBER OF ENTRIES,

Good morning, I''ve been working on my first Rails app. I''m replacing an old Perl script that scrapes a bunch of data from an Oracle database, generates a bunch of charts then builds a static webpage with the charts. I''ve re-built it in Rails, with about 25% of the code it took to do in Perl and the users can now get dynamic charts instead of day old charts (or

Hi, i was wondering if there was some kind of general line of code i could add to my application, anywhere i suppose, that would generate some kind of effect to notify the user that an effect is happening...it could be a box on the top of the screen or something, that would be like the small bar at the end of the browser that shows the user the status of a loading page ... i was hoping

It seems common to use RJS for quickly adding and highlighting a list that is having content added to it like this: http://rafb.net/paste/results/Z3m32g48.html ... where "my_list" would be an UL and the partial would insert a LI. Given that example, is there an easy way to highlight only the newly inserted LI instead of the whole UL? The only way I can see to do it is to give

Hi I want to show some info and provided an ''edit'' button next to it. This will change the display info to an editable form. I''ve seen this done before, but what I can''t figure out is whether I have to use an actual remote action to the rails server? I think I should be able to render both the edit box and the display info as seperate divs, and then show/hide

Does RJS inherently support the Element.toggle effect? I haven''t been able to call it the way you call "appear", "fade", etc... Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

All, I want to do an AJAX request using a custom image button. I currently have this as a standard button action using "button_to". What I need is the button equivalent of "link_to_remote". Is there a helper that I can use, or do I need to build it by hand? I see button_to_function(), but that sets me up to call a Javascript function, not post to a Rails action. Or can

I would really appreciate some help with changing a link_to_remote call to a button of some sort. Here''s a little background. On the page there are two <div>s. One is a form that lets the visitor enter items. The second <div> is where the entered items get displayed, each in it''s own item <div>. Each item <div> has two <span>s. The first one

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).

Is there a way to toggle an effect in an RJS? If not, anyone have recommendations for how to manually make it toggle? I guess I would assume some boolean that the rjs checks everytime it''s called and depending on whether it''s true or false it will do page.visual_effect :appear or page.visual_effect :hide -Ben Lisbakken -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am running Rails 1.10 and wanted to check out the RJS templates. Rails doesn''t seem to find them. I did issue the rake comment update_javascripts and that did not correct the problem. RJS is part of 1.1 right? Any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

How do you call a javascript function to do something when the response is returned to the visitors browser? Easy ey? //Daniel -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Ok, I''ve got some link_to_remote stuff working elsewhere just fine, but this time it''s doing something very screwy. Here''s the view code to create a link to remotely toggle a boolean value on a record: <td class="contact_active"> <%= link_to_remote "<div id=''contact_active_#{cm.id}''><span

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 =>

I just went through and cleaned out most of the bugs and patches. I also added a facebooker.js file that implements enough of prototype to do $() and link_to_remote with :update and remote_form_for with :update Let me know if you run into any issues with it.

I have been trying all kinds of different ways to produce what I think should be a simple effect, but have not had any luck yet and apparently I am not following the general idea... What I am trying to accomplish is the following (part 1 works and part 2 does not): 1. One of my views has a link_to_remote which updates a div container with a table of data my example is <div

hi all i''m trying to pass a variable name right round the block and need a hand to ease my aching brain. ##in my sidebar i have <li><%= SidebarItem(''catalogue'') %></li> <li><%= SidebarItem(''provenance'') %></li> <li><%= SidebarItem(''status'') %></li> ##linked to a

For a regular form I use the :onlick option to disable the submit button after the first click in order to prevent double clicks (leading to double entries): <% form_tag :action => ''create'' do %> <%= submit_tag "Create", :onclick => "this.disabled=true,this.form.submit();"%> I''m having trouble using this same method to prevent

Hi, I''m creating a list of ingredients on a page. When the user clicks the ''Add Ingredient'' button a record gets added to the db and the ingredient gets added to the page. On the page, each record is represented by a <div> with three <span>s inside. One of the <span>s has a link_to_remote to ''delete'' the ingredient. When the link

Hello All, I''m enjoying the simplicity and power of RJS templates in Rails 1.1, but am perplexed about sharing them. I have several templates that I would like to access in various controllers, but if I moved them to views/shared/whatever.rjs, my app can''t seem to find them. I changed the name to _whatever.rjs and referenced them as "shared/whatever", but no luck.
