Routing and AJAX problem.

Hello,

I am having a problem in using AJAX in Rails(I am trying for the first time), and I am pretty sure it is because of routing. This is my code http://pastie.org/412541

As far I knew the URL's were supposed to be like "/controller/action/ id" but when I do "/controller/action" it throws an error "Could not find model with ID=action" and that is why my AJAX calls aren't working. I do not wish to use form_for_remote or link_to_remote as I need to make these calls from JS.

Could someone please help me out.

Regards, Prateek

you should read up on REST. maybe start here:

When you're using RESTful routes (map.resources) you should not request /projects/create.json but /projects.json. I would simply change your code into this: http://pastie.org/412548. Two changes have been made: I've changed "/projects/create.json? authenticity_token=0000&project[title]=lala" into "/projects.json? project[title]=lala" and added a line saying "protect_from_forgery :except => :create" in the ProjectsController.
