I think I have a handle on my problem now, but I don't know how to fix
it.
A user clicks one of several "show" buttons to expand a section of the
table. The js.rjs file blinds_up whatever is showing, redraws the
whole table (to get the new rows we want to expand, with
style="display:none") and then calls blind_down on all the new rows.
I wasn't thinking asynchronously enough, the blind_up never seems to
happen because as soon it starts, we replace the whole table. that is
to say, the rows i am trying to hide are blown away before we see them
get hidden. So, how do I give the blind_up time to finish?
