Since you're on the subject of jQuery, would you mind helping me with something? I am trying to add new file_fields using a link so I can add more Asset objects to my Project. I know how to generate files, and tried it substituting the id numbers with a variable that increased, etc. But then I realized I wasn't creating actual objects so these new fields wouldn't save!
So now I am sort of stuck. Here is what I am working with (new view, and partial). How can I get that partial to generate using jQuery? http://pastie.org/private/gqhqxwzsh220zzhwhbvw On Feb 19, 11:47 am, Frederick Cheung <[email protected]> wrote: > On 19 Feb 2009, at 11:30, Greg Hauptmann wrote: > > > Hi, > > > Question - If I'm starting to use Rails javascript/ajax helpers but > > want to start doing some more custom/complex Ajax/Javascript should > > I learn RJS as part of moving forward?
