What's the question ? I don't understand from what you've written the difference between what you're getting and what you're expecting

im expecting thata its gets execute $(document).ready(function(){ alert('ox');

} in the index.js.erb

5

the line

format.js {render :nothing => true}

renders, well, nothing. so it gives a blank page. if you want the action to render

the corresponding template, remove the render function.

Thanks, it works, the thing is that i did thing that the _index.js.erb is for put all the javascript,but now i see that i just to work for ajax things, i think it was a way to organize javascrit code.
