Hello there,
I'm trying to do something like:
render :update do |page| page[:client_list].replace_html render(:partial => 'client_list', :object => @clients_list) name = page[:name].getValue(); end
but I'm not getting the value, or somehow use $("name").getValue() inside of the controller.
You will need to send this value as a parameter of your AJAX call, using the :with parameter of the form helper.
Hello Mark, thanks... but, my problem is bigger than that or I don't know how that the answer is easy.
So, I have a structure like this. (view)
<div id="my_client_list"> <% @client_list.each do |client| -%> <%= client.name%> ....... .. .. .. .. <% end -%> <%=will_paginate(@client_list, :params => {:controller => "client", :action => "search_result", :foo => "$F('name')"})%> </div>
<div id="search_form_div"> <form class="sidebar-search-companies" id= 'search_form'> <label for="nome">Nome</label> <%= text_field_tag :name%> .... .... ... </form> <%= observe_form :search_form, :frequency => 0.5, :url => { :action => "search_result" } %> </div>
What I wanna do is, pass the :name.value of the search form to the paginate action, so when the result is paginated I will still have the same results. Otherwise, when I go the the second page for example, I will have the second page of all my clients, not the result of the search.
Sounds confusing... did you understand?
Tks,
David Sousa

Since you're using observe_form, params[:name] will be set in your controller action, which can be used in the view. e.g. :foo => params[:name]
