:before => "$$('tr#task_#{completed_task.id} > td.task-title-
cell').update('Reactivating')"
should do the trick. Also you probably need to add a .first() after
your $$() selector, since it always returns an array as far as i
know.
As for your question regarding style, I think there isn't really a
better alternative and also I don't think it looks too messy ... . if
your selector gets really long and ugly you could assign it to a
variable first, like:
selector = "tr#task_#{completed_task.id} > td.task-title-cell"
and then:
:before => "$$('#{selector}').first().update('Reactivating')"
