Hi Fabian, Looks like I am heading into the right direction, but I think I have to add some ajax flavor in it to make it working. Yestarday I worked on it and I realized that periodically_call_remote can help me out of this... When I looked at the javascripts which http://livingsocial.com has used, I've found that they are using JSON in some ways... and that's make me worrying :(
Now the point is like I will implement the database part of it.. now comes the slider. What do I need for that? any javascript, jquery, prototype libraries I have to use? I will be very glad if you will help me with some sample codes and some links which can help me to achieve this... BTW thanks a ton for giving your valuable response :) On Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 4:19 AM, FabianF <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > Taking a look to this site seems you need to do something like: > 1.
