I definitely can turn off the Ajax.Updater, but what I need to be able
to do is submit the information from Sortable.serialize some other
way. I am not very good with JavaScript, but is there some way to
change the following code (generated by link_to):
<a href="/choices/save/5"
onclick="var f = document.createElement('form'); f.style.display =
'none';
this.parentNode.appendChild(f); f.method = 'POST';
f.action = this.href;f.submit();return false;">save
choices</a>
So that somehow the return value of Sortable.serialize('choice_list')
gets submitted too? I tried changing the action to this.href +
Sortable.serialize('choice_list'), but it didn't have any effect.
It seems there should be a way to tell rails "I want you to submit the
stuff generated by the following JavaScript: ".
But I am either too blind to find it or it doesn't exist (either is
likely).
