Javascript disabled for link_to_remote

Hi,

If a user doesn't have javascript enabled, how would I know with the link_to_remote...

In my view, I have this:

  <%= link_to_remote( "Add user",:url => { :action => :show_add_user } ) %>

And in my action, I have this:

  def show_add_user     if(reqest.xhr?)       render :update do |rjs|           rjs.replace_html :add_user_form, :partial => 'form'       end     else         redirect_to_index("<font color='red'>Error</font>")     end

But obviously this won't work since the link_to_remote involves javascript already. What can I do?

Thanks

Set the href on the link to what the user should see (instead of the default which is just '#')

Mmm... well how do I invoke an action with the link_to_remote when the user has javascript disabled.

If I have an action called "add_user", would I still put this in the href, and how?

You set the href attribute to the appropriate url (use url_for)
