Hi all,
Currently I'm working on a ruby on rails project and I have to say, I'm
loving all the neat conventions.
Now I would like to integrate some Javascript into my project, with the use
of Coffee script.
But I have to admit, I have little knowledge about Javascript, and even
less about Coffee script.
Having said that, I would still like to try to use it.
Anyway, what I want is this: I want a button on my webpage that, when
clicked, gives me an alert box.
What I would write in *HTML*:
<div id="test">
<button id="test_button">Test</button>
</div>
And in the included *JS* file:
window.onload = function() {
$("test_button").onclick = test_func;
}
function test_func(){
alert('it works!');
}
I tested this, and it does exactly what I want.
Now, the corresponding *HAML* code I'm using is:
.test
%button{:id => 'test_button'} Test
And in Coffee script:
test_func = -> alert 'it works!'
window.onload = -> $('test_button').onclick = test_func
This does create a button with the text 'Test' on there.
But when I try the code above, it does not preform any action..
I have the feeling it's because I'm unaware of some rails convention.
Can maybe somebody help me with my problem?
*Versions I'm using:*
- Ruby: 1.9.3p5
- Rails: 3.1.3
- Haml: 3.1.4
- Coffee-script: (2.2.0)
I hope this was enough information.
Please let me know if anything is unclear
Kind regards,
Ron
