(Original post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14569721/rails-parameters-get-lost-because-of-jquery-link, unfortunately no response)
I saw this Railscast ( http://railscasts.com/episodes/240-search-sort-paginate-with-ajax) the other day and wanted to use the techniques for an application of mine. I have a page with elements on it and I want to sort them by values and select them by tags. Also I tried to combine it with the nice jQuery links. In the view I have some of the links: %nav#sort %span= link_to t('name'), params.merge(:sort => 'name') %span= link_to t('value'), params.merge(:sort => 'value')%nav#tag %span= link_to t('all'), params.merge(:tag => 'all') %span= link_to t('basic'), params.merge(:tag => 'basic') And this is the jQuery in the application.js calling to render the main part of the page: $(function() { $("#sort span a, #tag span a").on("click", function() { $.getScript(this.href); return false; });}); The defaults are 'name' for sort and 'basic' for tag. They are set in methods within the controller and model for not being redundant. The linking itself works perfectly fine and the jQuery itself, too. However if I add the jQuery to the linking, the parameters will not get passed and so can not be merged. I guess when the page is reloaded there is no parameter set and jQuery does not pass the first one I click on. Though somehow in Ryan Bates' Railscast it does work and even if I download it, it works just fine. Does anybody know what the mistake might be? I already had to change it from ".live("click", function()" to ".onlive("click", function()" for the new jQuery 1.9.0. Is it because of the jQuery version (1.4.3 in the Railscast and 1.9.0 now)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
