Clilking on a link should replace that link with a form

Ruby
1

Hi everyone!

I’m new to Ruby and JS, and there is a problem I’m trying to solve:
I need a link that, when clicked, transforms into a form for inputting
data. I have next code:

(show.html.erb)

<%= link_to_remote 'New Journal', :url => { :action => :expand_create_form, :controller => :journals, :user_id => @user.id } %>

(expand_create_form.js.rjs)
page[:new_journal].replace_html :partial => “create”,
:object => @user

The problem is I don’t want to use the controller, is there some
shortcut to call rjs code when user clicks on “New Journal” link?

Ruby doesn’t really have anything to do with links, or with JavaScript.

I think you might want to ask this question on the Rails list.

Oh, yes, you’re right.
