Still a semi-newbie, but so far I''ve managed to solve most things with a bit of help from the Agile book, some googling around, and a bit of trial-and-error, but I''m really stuck with this one (very much an Ajax newbie): I know how to gracefully degrade an AJAX newpost type call so it can appear inline or (for those without JS support) go to a new page (put an ":href

I have an Ajax responder method which uses respond_to to make sure it only works with Ajax. I''m having trouble figuring out how to call this action successfully. I''m using Rails 1.2.x. Any thoughts? -- Cheers, Kevin Williams http://www.almostserio.us/ "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic." - Arthur C. Clarke

Dear everybody I''m trying to develop a web application that makes use of AJAX, but also works if a user has no (or doesn''t want to use) JS. For normal requests, this is pretty easy. Almost every action ends with render blahblah, :layout => !request.xhr? This way, I can use the same action to render a full page (with layout) as well as rendering an AJAX request (only the

Saw a lot of recommendations for Firebug (http://www.joehewitt.com/software/firebug/) on this list. I''ve scanned its docs and tried it--many useful features. But I''m so dense that I can''t get it to spy XHR/AJAX requests and their response on FC5 running Firefox 1.5.0.4 and Firebug 0.4. Can someone tell me how to get to

Hi! I try to get AJAX running on a mobile Windows Mobile 5.0 based device and failed. There should be a JavaScript support but nothing happens. Have any of you experience with the rails javascripts on a this platform or are there any hints, documentation on the net? tia, -- Daniel V?lkerts Protected by Anti Pesto.

I''m using rails3. It does not seem to check the authenticity_token when doing a POST using Ajax. I traced this to: module ActionDispatch class Request < Rack::Request ..... def forgery_whitelisted? get? || xhr? || content_mime_type.nil? || ! content_mime_type.verify_request? end end so you don''t check if its a get? or a xhr? (ie ajax request). Is this correct? --

I have an full ajax app doing crud operations for contact info for one section. I was using ajax calls to edit and cancel and also to add a contact. I am implementing a button_to_function instead of doing an ajax call to just edit/add/or cancel a contact. I am running into a memory issue using the button_to_function or link_to_function. I have this: <%= link_to_function ''Edit

Greetings, I''m new to rails and currently having couple problems about how to add javascript functionality into rails.

When a controller responds to a link_to_remote with a redirect_to, the link_to_remote gets a success callback, this would seem like a bug to me, at a minimum it should return a failure? This is driving me crazy because all the login engines/generators respond to an authentication error with a redirect_to. The work around is to change them to all do a render :layout => false, :status => 500

Hello all, I have been developing some ajax stuff all week. Just this morning the ajax calls quit working in Safari, and Firefox. I backed out to a last known working state and they still were not working, so I added some handlers to see if I could sniff out the problem. ... onException: function(transport){$ ("serversaid").innerHTML=transport.toJSONString();}, onFailure:

Hi, I''ve never posted here before so please forgive me if I''m not observing proper decorum, yadda yadda yadda :-) I''ve ran into a very, very strange bug with Prototype I wanted to share and see if anyone else has seen this. In a few of my projects involving Ext JS, I''m using the TreePanel control, which uses AJAX to load child nodes asynchronously. Because I

Hi, I have a standard type authentication technique direct from AWDWR, so there is a before_filter :authorize_employee, :except => :login in my employees_controller.rb the authorize_employee is in application.rb def authorize_employee unless session[:employee_id] flash[:notice] = "Please log in" # save the URL the user requested so we can hop

Hi. I am trying to do an ajax link in Rails 3.2.1 and jQuery. I am loading jquery.js and jquery_ujs.js. In my document ready, if I bind to the event "click," clicking the link fires an event, but if I click to ajax:beforeSend, it doesn''t. Nothing happens when you click the link in JQuery. The event does go to the controller, though. Works: $(document).ready(function(){

Hi, There doesn''t seem to be any reference for taking HTML snapshots from within a Rails server. I wonder how one could implement Google''s crawlable AJAX spec (http://code.google.com/web/ajaxcrawling/docs/learn-more.html)on a Rails application? To summarize: I have a Rails application with a Javascript front-end with lots of AJAX. I need Google to index the AJAX content, hence

Hi all, In my application, I want seamless degradability so I use request.xhr? to check whether a request is an ajax call. However here and there, I need to use redirect_to - in this case the request is not xhr anymore, and the check doesn''t work as expected. Is there a way to make xhr- like redirect (which allow to get to another controller+action)? Thanks, - Chuong

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

Hello everyone, I''m a newbie at Ruby on Rails. I spent nearly two days of the Memorial Day weekend stumbling upon making Ajax working in Rails. At this point, I''m so exhausted and hope that I can get some help to move forward. I have tried nearly everything I found on Google but still not successful. Initially, I tried the Ajax approach offered by Rails but did not work, so I
