AJAX: link_to_remote problem

Rails
1

I use:
<%= link_to_remote(“Update”,
:update => ‘mydiv’,
:url => { :action => :create, :host => ‘rails’ }) %>

which generates the following:

Update

as a result /account/create is routed to http:/localhost//account/create
(which runs mod Python) and
not as I would like (and need) to http://rails/account/create

Using the following:

<%= link_to_remote(“Update 2”,
:update => ‘mydiv’,
:url => ‘http://rails/account/create’ ) %>

doesn’t work either. It results in using the correct url, but the url
parameter seems to be not correct:

TypeError in Account#create
can’t dup NilClass
RAILS_ROOT: C:/Projects/Athena/rails/public/…/config/…

Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
#{RAILS_ROOT}/vendor/plugins/javascript_generator_templates/lib/add_rjs_to_action_controller.rb:41:in
`dup’

the controller contains:

def create
render :layout => false
end

create.rhtml contains:

Hello from Ajax!

new.rhtml contains:
<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>

<%= link_to_remote(“Update”,
:update => ‘mydiv’,
:url => { :action => :create, :host => ‘rails’ }) %>

This text will be changed 2

Does anybody have any idea on how to work around this problem?

Thanks,

Willi
