Two issues: 1. Why does rails have a hard time detecting js calls? If I make a jquery ajax request to foo/bar it fails, but if I append a js extension it passes => foo/bar.js. It seems that ror ignores the request headers and only looks at the extension. Am I missing something?
2. I am adding some ajax calls for some destroy requests and noticed that rails always wants to render back the destroy.html.xxx template. Obviously on a destroy ajax call I don't want a template rendered.
The only way to get around this is to do:
respond_to do |r| r.js { render :text => "", :template => false } end
Is there something that I am missing that is causing this?
I am currently using v2.1.0, although it is on the todo list to update the site after the current upgrades.
Thanks for the help.
