Hi,
I am using Rails 1.2.6
i have an items controller.
i am using the templated index.rhtml so it displays everything in my items table
each item has the following fields in database. id name category which is non unique price
what i need is let say there is a drop down list in the index.rhtml which contains all the possible values of category in the items table. (I have managed this.)
inside this drop down list it contains say 3 possible values of category and the value 'ALL'
when a user chooses the value in the drop down, i need the items that are displayed in this index.rhtml to change accordingly.
Eg, if the user chooses the category 'household'
the page will only display items whose category is of the value household.
if the user chooses 'ALL'
the page will display all.
I am open to either ajax or a full postback. Please advise me as to how to get the effect I want.
Please advise.
Thank you.
