Thanks for the ideas .. some of my records are very flexible with joins,such that I can't be sure how may fields their are in the form or what field types there are.
I figured I could guess that I wouldn't have more than 100 fields and I could generally have an idea how many fields there was so that may not be a big deal, however when I initially do the remote_form_for(@rec) do my_form my_form is a form builder object that I seem to doubt is something I can have available on an ajax call into a partial to generate a field after the initial page load. Since when the page first loads, I don't know for which fields I would need a text_area versus a text_field, those details are ideally figured out when I would load the field via ajax. I could try to figure that out ahead of time, but if I have older records where the format layout has changed, those would error out. Possibly the set up work to get this scheme to work is a bit more than I anticipated, though it may still be worth doing .. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
