Ajax not working with form_remote_tag!

Rails
1

Hello everyone,

for some reason my ajax form isnt working. I have NO idea why not! My
ajax form is in my index view. Here is my code.
My index view is this:

Charts

<% form_remote_tag :url => {:action => 'view'}, :update => 'results' do %> Between: <%= date_select :date_1, :order => [ :day, :month, :year ], :start_year => 2010, :end_year => Time.now.year %> and <%= date_select :date_2, :order => [ :day, :month, :year ], :start_year => 2010,:end_year => Time.now.year %>
Type <%= select( "charts", "type", { "Calories burned" => "calories_burned", "Distance" => "distance", "Heart rate" => "heart_rate"}) %>
<%= submit_tag 'View' %> <% end %>

My action called view view’s is this:
<%= @graph %>

my view action is:

def view
date_1 = params[:date_1]
date_2 = params[:date_2]
type = params[:type]
@graph = open_flash_chart_object(758,400, show(date_1, date_2,
type))
end

Thanks,

zack.

I am not an expert at rjs as I prefer to go directly with jquery, but
when
you say not working, have you tried in firbug to see if a request is
being
sent at all? Is anything executing?

Nope. I’ll give that a go now. But i tried adding puts “hello” in the
action and it never prints hello on the server so Im not sure why thats
the case either.

Thanks.

def view
date_1 = params[:date_1]
date_2 = params[:date_2]
type = params[:type]
@graph = open_flash_chart_object(758,400, show(date_1, date_2,
type))

render :update do |page|
page.replace_html "results", :partial => "path_to_view"
page[:results].visual_effect :highlight,
                      :startcolor => "#bbcccc",
                      :endcolor   => "#ccdddd"
end

end

Are you seeing the post in the log? If not then it is the submit that
is failing. Have a look at the html for the form and see if you can
see anything wrong (View, Page Source or similar in the browser).
Also copy the html and paste it into the w3c html validator to check
the html is valid.

Well then the submit must be failing because nothing appears in the log.
This is very odd :S.

Thanks,

Zack.
