Hi,

I am new to rails, and I was struggling on getting this code to work on rails 3.0.4 and I found out that I need to use the link_to thing but I am unsure on how to write it for the code below:

<div id="seats"> <%= render :partial=>"seat_list", :locals=>{:seats=>@flight.seats } %> </div> <%= link_to_remote(    "Refresh seats",    :url=>"/flights/#{@flight.id}/seats",    :method=>"get",    :update=>"seats") %>

what can I DOOOOOO???

Start by describing the problem. You need to explain what you’re trying to do and what’s not working.

I am trying to make a refresh button that would reload a partial _seat_list.html.erd in ajax and I am trying to write it so that it works for rails 3. I am also getting this error "undefined method `link_to_remote' for #<#<Class:0x2ca4218>:0x2ca2fb8>", which I have learned is not now a method in rails 3 and am struggling to write it as a link_to

That method and other similar functions were extracted to the Prototype Legacy Helper plugin in Rails 3. The replacement method name is remote_function, though the usage is a little different. See http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/PrototypeHelper.html#method-i-remote_function.

Check out at https://github.com/rails/prototype_legacy_helper if you want to use the old syntax, though I expect that best practice is to use the functionality bundled in the current release.
