similar to: :class in link_to_remote?

Does anyone know of a way to update individual attributes with validation? update_attribute disables the validation checks in the record model, so I''m wondering if there''s a workaround for this. In my application, I want to allow the user to update some or all the attributes without having to enter :password and :password_confirmation, both of which are subject to

I just upgraded Ruby to 1.8.4 and Rails to 1.1 and I''m in the middle of changing my Javascript code over to the Scriptaculous helper functions. page.visual_effect :highlight, "some_div" seems to be broken. Instead of fading, the background color of the element stays highlighted. page.visual_effect works for other effects, though. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Posted via

I''m new to RoR and have started building my first application. I''m building an account sign-up controller and I have two questions: 1. What is the best way to pass form params between methods in my sign-up controller? The solution I''m using seems too hacky and there''s got to be a something more elegant.

Hi, I have a link_to_remote and it update a div. After the first click the div is opened with the information. Now I want to be able to close hide the div . How should I do it. Someone at the IRC told me to use toggle. But what I want is a bit odd. I want that it will not do again link_to_remote but toggle. Tnx Kfir

I''ve tried moving the code around in different ways, but so far I haven''t gotten remote_function to work for me (I''m using Rails 2.3.2 on my Mac). I want to make an AJAX call when I double-click a word on my page, and the Javascript function is being called when the ondblclick event is fired, but nothing happens when it gets to my the "new Ajax.Request" part

I''m working on a couple of user input forms -- one data entry, one search -- where I''d like to start off by displaying only top-level categories. Then, if a user checked one of the top-level categories, all the child categories would show for that top-level one. (Displaying all the child categories for every parent would be a bit overwhelming, it''s a large list.) I can

Hi guys, I was wondering if you are able to have a link_to_remote, having an image_tag and the link_to_remote has a mouseover event that updates a div. Does the image_tag need the mouseover event? I currently have: <%= link_to_remote(image_tag(@p_image.public_filename(:thumb)), :update => "big_pic", :onmouseover => {:action => :color_change, :id => @p_image.id})%>

Hi there! I did implemented the radio button with remote_function to update some div via RJS. It works perfect with FireFox, but behaves weird with IE. When I click the radio button it loads data (I see the indicator showing) but not updates the div with info until I click left mouse button anywhere. It''s weird =( Here is the snippet from .rhtml code <td>

I would like to pass the value selected in a select statement back so that I can use it in the controller, through using a remote_function call, and I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong: view rhtml: <select id="widgets_id" name="widgets[id]" onchange="<%= remote_function( :update => "parts", :url=> { :action => :loadParts } )

I have class in a plugin that I want to crack open and add some functionality to for a particular application. So, I created a file by the same name as the class in my app/models folder and added some methods to the class, but, I can''t seem to get Rails (2.2.2) to pick-up the extended definition. I did find while trying to debug the problem that if I paste the extended definition into,

I have a list of items on a page. Each item has a select list. If someone changes the select list I would like to update the appropriate record on the server....nothing else. I suspect I am making this too difficult. I have an action on my controller for updating this value. I just tried the ''remote_function'', ah, function. It invokes the action on the controller but the the

Hi all, I have a property, defined in an external stylesheet: .my_class { background-color: #FF0000; } I want to retrieve the value of this background-color of the class my_class. How can I do that with prototype/scriptaculous ? Thanks in advance, Nicolas Terray

Hi, I''ve noticed that my remote_function calls are resulting in POST requests. As a result, my routes do not apply since it does not generate a url based on the parameters, but simply posts to the raw url with post data. I want to make a GET request instead of a POST. How can I do that? Has anyone else run into this? Thanks, Ryan -- View this message in context:
