Hi All,
I have an 'admin' controller in which I have a 'show_product' action. In the view of this action, I have a list of names of the categories w/ checkboxes to the left of each.
What I am trying to do is to allow the administrator to just check off the categories in this show_product view and have it add the product to the category.
That part I am not able to figure out is how to display the list of categories & checkboxes and create observe_form's or observe_field's to send the product_id and category_id to the action that will do the logic part.
Here is the code I've got:
# @categories & @product is available to the show_product action as variables
# _categories.rhtml (partial gets called into the show_product.rhtml <% if @categories %> <% for category in @categories %> <div style="clear:both"> <form id='<%= category.id %>'> <%= check_box :category_id, :value => category.id %> <%= label :category, :name, category.name %> <%= observe_form category.id, :frequency => 1.0, :update => 'category_notice', :url => { :controller => 'admin', :action => 'update_product_category' }, :with => "'category=' + encodeURIComponent($('@category.id').value) + '&product=' + encodeURIComponent($('@product').value)" %> </form> </div> <% end %> <br /><br /> <% else %> <p>No categories found.</p> <% end %>
