Sergio, Thanks for the answer. Finally had some time to play with this.
So first of all - I know nothing about how AS works under the hood - so forgive me if I ask dumb questions. The index page of the controller in question is the one where all the fun is located. So it has two embedded AS's - one for user and one for students. Further down the page it has two dynamic sections - I call them section3 and section4. If the user has created any students then the section3 needs to be updated. And if they have completed section3 then section4 get enabled. I tried to add app/views/<controller>/on_create.rjs (I use rails 2.2) In that file I have: page << render(:super) page.replace_html "section3", :partial => "section3" page.replace_html "section4", :partial => "section4" On the index page the two sections are properly identified with <div id=section3> ... </div> etc. The index page further has a render :partial for both to ensure that it loads in a proper way. I notice that the on_create gets called when the there is a create action in the AS, but section3 and section4 are never updated. Do I need to do something different here. What other actions can I support? Anything that catches a destroy? /S On Apr 27, 2:28 am, "Sergio Cambra .:: entreCables S.L. ::." <[email protected]> wrote: > El Saturday 25 April 2009 23:27:49 Soren escribió: > > > I have a page upon which I have to embedded scaffolds. > > > At some point the user might have created data with those scaffolds > > such that additional options to the page should be enabled. > > > Any suggestions to cause the page to get reloaded after an CRUD action > > on one of the scaffold (simplest solution) or how to cause an AJAX > > action to trigger that would update the page with the new options. > > > Is the before_create_save action in AS a path anyonehassuccessfully > > used for this ? > > > /S > > You should add some javascript to the views to reload the scaffold, or add a > new link with javascript after a create for example.
