I have a page where I do this:
<div id="submitForm"> <% if current_user.already_done?(@question) %> <%= render 'update_info_form' %> <% else %> <%= render 'create_info_form' %> <% end %> </div>
Which works fine. It checks if the user has already answered a question, and picks either the creation form or the update form.
However, when I try to switch out this block of html using AJAX, it won't render the update form. When I look at the page source, I'm just seeing the form that creates a new record, and it doesn't work properly.
Anyone got any ideas how to do this properly?
My create.js.erb is: $("#response").html("<p>Answer created.</p>"); $("#submitForm").html("<%= escape_javascript(render('questions/update_info_form')) %>")
and update is just: $("#response").html("<p>Answer updated.</p>");
After I've clicked to create a new record, I get the 'answer created' and on the second click I get 'answer updated' like it should, but it just updates it with no parameters
