Hi,

i just want to create with Ror an event when a the mouse is over an element. Is there any helper function like link_to_remote that generates the code.... I need something like this

<div onMouseOver="<%= function_i_need 'div_i_want_to_update', :url=>{:action=>'list'} %>" > Some text </div>

Thanks

You are close: look at 'link_to_remote' source    http://caboo.se/doc/classes/ActionView/Helpers/PrototypeHelper.html#M005056 , and you'll see that it calls 'remote function'    http://caboo.se/doc/classes/ActionView/Helpers/PrototypeHelper.html#M005063

In the view :
