Why is it outputting my partial like that?

Thanks M

Wildtangent · January 8, 2008, 9:19pm

I was getting this earlier today, i removed the :update => 'xx' option from the link_to_remote call and it worked fine (since you're probably setting the update target in the rjs file anyway)

Hope this helps, try posting your code in future so it is easier to assist!

Well this is what I have in my .rjs:

page.replace_html 'countView', :partial => 'affcount'

And this is what I have in my partial:

<p> <form method="POST" action="search_date"> <table align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0> <tr> <td bgcolor="#0066CC" colspan=3><b>View <%= @system.name %> - <%= @partnerName %> Counts By Date:</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><%= select_month(Date.today, :use_month_numbers => true)%>/<%= select_day(Date.today)%>/<%= select_year(Date.today, :start_year => 2000, :end_year => 2030)%></td><td> To </td><td><%= select_month(Date.today, :use_month_numbers => true, :field_name => 'month2')%>/<%= select_day(Date.today, :field_name => 'day2')%>/<%= select_year(Date.today, :start_year => 2000, :end_year => 2030, :field_name => 'year2')%></td> <tr> <tr> <td colspan=3><input type="submit" id="SubmitDate" value="Get Count"/></td> </tr> </table> </form>

<table align="center" cellspacing="1" border="0"> <tr> <td colspan="5" bgcolor="#ECECEC"><b><%= @system.name %> - <%= @partnerName %> List Count <%= @dateToday %></b></td> </tr> <tr> <td bgcolor="#0066CC"><b>List</b></td><td bgcolor="#0066CC"><b>Total</b></td> </tr> <tr bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> <td><b><%= @partnerName %></b></td><td><%= @total %></td> </tr>

</table> </p>

No, I think what Wildtangent meant was what do you have in the function that triggers the request to the RJS page?

Kieran_Johnson · January 10, 2008, 1:20am

I’ve also been getting this issue since upgrading to Rails 2. I’ve tried both rjs and js templates and both return javascript that does not eval.

11175 · January 10, 2008, 12:51pm

Ok I found the source of my problem.

In my partial, and the page where I want to show my partial in, I had the form tags like this:

Then I tried just for fun to put my form tags like this: <%= form_remote_tag :url => {:action => 'do_count'}, :html => {:id => 'docount-form'} %>

<%= submit_tag 'Do Count' %>

<%= end_form_tag %>

I didn't change any code anywhere, I just changed the way I do the forms and it worked!

Thanks for the help M

Kieran_Johnson · January 10, 2008, 1:28pm

Thanks for posting your solution. This doesn't work for me though, anything (forms, observers, etc) that should return javascript to the browser returns the code but it does not get executed.

I think this is Rails 2 specific, but from my searching on the web others do not seem to be having problems like this.

11175 · January 10, 2008, 1:30pm

Can you list the code your using, like rjs, partial, controller?

Kieran_Johnson · January 10, 2008, 6:33pm

Hi Matthew

Here’s the form, I tried using the remote form and it didn’t make a difference, also this is just an autocomplete on the search term

Search:

I’ve added the javascript unobtrusively, but here’s the javascript that is called;

new Ajax.Autocompleter(‘search-term’, ‘search-results’, ‘/contacts/search’, {

method: ‘get’,

asynchrous: true,

evalScripts: true

});

Here’s the controller action:

def search

@search_term = params[:search_term] + “*”

@contacts = Contact.find_by_contents(@search_term)

respond_to do |format|

format.html

format.js

end

Here’s the rjs:

page[‘search-results’].replace_html :partial => ‘search_results’

Here’s the partial that is returned by the javascript:

<% for contact in @contacts %>

<%= contact.full_name %>

<% end %>

And finally here’s the output from firebug when a success request is made:

try {

$(“search-results”).update(“\u003Cul\u003E\n \n \u003Cli\u003EKieran Johnson\u003C/li\u003E\n \n\u003C/ul\u003E”);

} catch (e) { alert(‘RJS error:\n\n’ + e.toString()); alert(‘$("search-results").update("\u003Cul\u003E\n \n \u003Cli\u003EKieran Johnson\u003C/li\u003E\n \n\u003C/ul\u003E");’); throw e }

If I run this in Firebug the item is inserted. As I mention previously I had this happen each time I’ve tried to create an app with rails 2. If you can shed any light on the problem it would be fantastic.

Thanks

Kieran

11175 · January 10, 2008, 6:55pm

Hey Kieran,

Instead of doing this:

<form id="search-form" action="/contacts/search" method="get"> <p> <label for="search-term">Search: </label> <input type="text" id="search-term" name="search_term" /> <img id="spinner" src="/images/spinner.gif" alt="Working..." style="display: none" /> <div id="search-results" class="autocomplete"></div> <input type="submit" value="Search" class="submit search"> </p> </form>

Why don't you do this:

<html> <head> <title>Search</title> </head> <body> <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :recipe (replace :recipe w/name of your table), :name (replace :name with the table column you are doing the search on) %> </body> </html>

Here's what you would do in the controller:

class SearchController < ApplicationController auto_complete_for :recipe, :name end

This code will automatically fetch the results and give it to you in a DHTML popup which can never be blocked by browsers.

or if you really want to use rjs you should have this instead:

page.replace_html 'search-results', :partial => 'search_results'

Regards Matthew

Kieran_Johnson · January 10, 2008, 7:08pm

I would use the helper by I need to search across a lot of fields, so I am doing this using Acts As Ferret. As I said before it works, its just the javascript does not eval.

I updated the rjs to reflect your suggestion, but its still a no go.
