Here is how you can make it happen. You need this javascript in your
app:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('a[method]').livequery(function(){
var message = $(this).attr('confirm');
var method = $(this).attr('method');
if (!method && !message) return;
$(this).click(function(event){
if (message && !confirm(message)) {
event.preventDefault();
return;
}
if (method == 'post' || method == 'put' || method == 'delete') {
event.preventDefault();
var form = $("<form/>").attr('method', 'post').attr('action',
this.href).attr('style', 'display: none');
if (method != "post") {
form.append($('<input type="hidden" name="_method"/
>').attr('value', method));
}
form.insertAfter(this).submit();
}
});
});
)};
Then you can use a normal link_to like this:
= link_to "Destroy!", url(:decom, instance.id), :method
=> :delete, :confirm => "Are you sure? There is no undo."
