similar to: Updating a select the correct way?

Hi, Yet another newbie here... I''m writing an appliction in Rails, and I''ve Ajaxified my select boxes so they update dynamically. I used the "observe_field" method to monitor changes to my select box. I find that it''s kind of erratic... it updates constantly and makes the selection for me, based on where my mouse happens to be hovering when it does its

I''m new to Rails and don''t totally understand some of the control behavior of ActionController. Here''s my problem: I have a _header.rhtml partial view that is supposed to be the header (naturally) on a main.rhtml view (i.e., main.rhtml calls the header partial via the render method). In the header view is a select field that I''d like to have refresh the

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.

Here''s my view <%= start_form_tag %> <%= javascript_include_tag "prototype" %> <p> Union: <div id="union">

I have a form with a text area. I want to have an observer watch the text area and update a div with the running count of characters in the text area. I tried "onchange" but that doesn''t update until you leave the text area. I was able to get it working using AJAX, but it''s silly to make a needless round trip to the server, when the page already knows

Before I waste more time trying to figure that out, I was wondering if it''s even possible? The Rails Way says that observe_field by default will trigger changes in text fields and text areas, and on clicks for radio buttons and check boxes. So perhaps I''m using the wrong tool here? Thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you

I''m using add_foreign_key_constraint and remove_foreign_key_constraint from Bubbleshare''s Active Records Extension plugin now to manage the foreign key relationships I describe in my other recent posting.

Hi! How can i use ajax with radio buttons? I have form with 2 radio buttons, which updates div with the value of selected radio button.
