similar to: RJS and Greybox : executing the js in the parent window?

Hi folks, I''ve written a little plugin to use for displaying a block of html over a page while fading out the background. This is like the lightbox.js library, and all it''s related offshoots (thickbox, greybox, etc.). My plugin, Redbox, is not really any better than these others (in fact, it''s less mature, and less tested), but it builds on prototype and scriptaculous,

I am trying to use Rails and the Action mailer to create a simple contact form on a website. I am using a table-less model to validate the form contents, then trying to use the Action Mailer chapter of the "Agile Web Development with Rails" book as a pattern to develop the send e-mail portion. I am having trouble getting it working and was hoping someone could point me in the

Hey all, This is a little OT but ... I''m trying to use this the YM4R/mapstraction clusterer with RJS but having a hard time, I can create a working cluster when i initiate it in a controller, but not from RJS. For the proper flow in my app it would be very helpful to be able to do it from RJS. Thanks for the help, Chuck -- *Chuck Fletcher* Email: chuck at chuckfletcher.com

After the (remote) delete action for my lesson_categories controller i fall through to this js.rjs file: page.visual_effect :fade, "lesson_category_#{@lesson_category.id}", :duration => 1 page.remove "lesson_category_#{@lesson_category.id}" The problem, though, is that the visual effect is initiated, then the remove is initiated, before the visual effect is finished, so

Hi all, I''ve been doing some work on the Ajax Scaffold (http://www.ajaxscaffold.com/), to make it work with file uploads (more specifically, the file_upload plugin). The first logical step was to get rid of form_remote_tag, since it''s impossible to send files via XMLHTTPRequests (to my best knowledge). So I referred to the iframe hack, similar to the upload progress bar here

Hi, I have a link_to_remote name ''Show notes'', which calls an action that uses this RJS template: page.replace "notes_remote", :partial => "notes/hide_notes_link" page.insert_html :top, "notes_list", :template => "notes/list" page.visual_effect :highlight, ''notes_list'', :duration => 3 Works great. The

respond_to do |format| format.html format.js { render :template => "login" } end Whenever I send an AJAX request to the action that has that code it says it cant find the template login.js. Why isnt it looking for login.rjs? Also when I take out the render it serves up the rhtml template instead of the rjs template. Any idea why this is? I am using edge rails and the latest

Hi, while I search the net for hints I leave this here, probably you will be faster than me finding an answer.

Hi, I''ve got a real head-scratcher. I''ve got a standard Ajax form using form_remote_tag, which calls a controller action which adds a comment and then sends back some JS via RJS which updates a few items on the page. It did work fine but (and I''ve no idea what has happened) now it doesn''t. It calls the controller action but gets an empty response back and

Hi, I''m trying to get my javascript to execute after clicking a link on my page using :format => "js" here''s my link: <%= link_to image_tag("/images/icons/user_add.png"), add_contact_path(:profile_id => profile.id, :url => request.url, :format => "js"), :title => "Add person to your contacts"%> in my controller i have

Hi, I have been trying to create a small Rails application.

Let me give a brief description of the application. This application is to Create, View and Update contacts. The problem came when updating a record.

I''m upgrading the Scriptaculous files in my Rails 2 project to version 1.8. Rails 2 doesn''t produce builder.js, scriptaculous.js, slider.js, and sound.js in the Javascript folder by default, and the files it produces (controls.js, dragdrop.js, effects.js) don''t have a version number in them. If I''m replacing the default files with the Scriptaculous 1.8

I am using dtrace on a Mac OS X Leopard beta. Currently I''m tracing read operations. I''d like to get info about the process which is creating the reads, as well as information about parent processes. The least amount of information I need is pid and process name, but more would certainly be a plus! I know that in the probe entry, pid, ppid, and process name are easily

Hello, It''s pretty hard giving a practical example on this one. I have a partial which contains some generated Javascript.

I want to know the standard/easiest way to add items to a parent? Example: comment added to post I would like this to happen in the ?show? view of post using a form that is shown when the user clicks the ?add new? button/link.

What I want to do is this: I have some RJS to blind_down an error message panel, but if the form is resubmitted and there are still errors,
