rjs toggle blind effect headache

I am trying to write a little rjs template that toggles a div.

Aha:

page[:div_id].toggle

I hear you cry, and yes it works, but what I am trying to do is the equivalent of:

Effect.toggle('div_id', 'blind')

Can anybody tell me have to write this in a rjs template??

Any help great fully received.

David.

according to:

http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/ScriptaculousHelper.html

there is a toggle visual effect of :toggle_blind but it's a scriptaculous helper, not a prototype helper. so try

page[:div_id].visual_effect(:toggle_blind)

or

page.visual_effect :toggle_blind, 'div_id'

if all else fails

page.call 'Effect.toggle', 'div_id', 'blind'

should do the trick.

Many thanks, both of these worked:

page.visual_effect :toggle_blind, 'div_id'

page.call 'Effect.toggle', 'div_i
