I use it like this:
CreateTables: function(){
ActiveRecord.connect
(ActiveRecord.Adapters.Local,this.DATABASE_NAME);
var Customer = ActiveRecord.define('customers',{
first_name: '',
first_name_py:'',
last_name: '',
last_name_py: '',
title: '',
title_py: '',
notes: '',
account_num: '',
company: '',
company_py: '',
created_at: '',
updated_at: ''
});
}
it's in a jQuery function. but i met a error message :
Could not create LocalServer: ActiveRecord.define is not a function!
