RJS in Ruby On Rails

RJS allows you to write ruby instead of javascript.

Your rjs file is just normal ruby, so you can do things like

if @divs_to_hide
page.hide(@divs_to_hide)
end
if @element_to_remove
page[@element_to_remove].remove()
end

TO update partial file...

--------------------------

render :update do |page|

page[:div_project_efforts].innerHTML = render :partial => "project_effort_graph"

end

==================================================================

Using Link_to_function

RJS to hide,show and to assign a value to call render partial with innerHTML on view side.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

<%= link_to_function "Edit" do |page|

page[:postbulletin].show;

page[:bulletin_title].value = bulletin.title;

page["bulletin[message]"].value = bulletin.message;

(bulletin.video_id != 0) ? (page[:addupdatevideo].innerHTML = render :partial => 'users/get_video';page[:addupdatevideo].show;) : (page[:addupdatevideo].hide);

(bulletin.video_id != 0) ? page[:addupdatevideo1].hide : page[:addupdatevideo1].show;

page[:bulletin_video].value = @video.id if bulletin.video_id != 0;

page[:bulletin_id].value = bulletin.id;

page[:error_messages].hide;

(bulletin.expired == true) ? (page[:bulletin_expiration].checked = false) : (page[:bulletin_expiration].checked = true) ;

end %>
