:) I would suggest you to read about the Ajax/RJS in general and in Rails. There are numerous free books/resources available.
For the stuff you just asked, it's like this.... It's called indicator, for which most of the world use an animated gif image for the purpose. So you need to put an indicator image in a hidden state. And then you can show/hide it based on the ajax request status. Here you can pick up any gif image you would like http://mentalized.net/activity-indicators/ there are numerous more available on web. And can implement it as following.... Say, your image is indicator.gif put your gif image anywhere in your form or on your page like this... <%= image_tag "indicator.gif", :id => "any_uniq_indicator_id", :style => "display:none" %> And add this to your form_remote_tag code... (ps: the loading and complete parameters) <%= form_remote_for :some_symbol, :url => the_url_youve_given, :loading => "$('any_uniq_indicator_id').show()", :complete => "$('any_uniq_indicator_id').show()" %> regards, Sur http://crimson9.com Mamadou Touré wrote: > Sur Max wrote: >> You need to use Ajax there. >> >> Instead of form_for you will need to use form_remote_for. >> >> regards, >> Sur >> >> http://crimson9.com >> >> > Thanks Sur, it works, but I need one more thing.
