I just released a whole new version of the Ajax Scaffold Generator (for
Ruby
on Rails). The generator creates a scaffold page like the typical rails
one,
except adding, editing and deleting are all done inline. The generated
scaffold is valid XHTML strict and fully styled right out of the box.
Its a generates a much better starting point for an Ajax’ified
application
or for any application than the existing scaffold generator. I hope you
guys
find it useful.
Thanks.

looks impressive and I suspect that I will be playing with it soon. Nice
demo and description too.
I downloaded this last night, and regenerated scaffolds for about half a
dozen models on one of my projects. It is simply amazing. I had no
hiccups, and it looks and works perfectly on every browser I threw at
it. thanks for your hard work on this Richard. (and unlike my earlier
email to Zed, I made sure to get your name right).
I got that same error also when trying the demo running Safari under
Tiger (intel). However, I think it’s something with the demo? It was
random for me and seemed to only happen after a canceled Edit of a row.
After reloading the data I was able to edit again.

Ya know, I just spent the past two days teaching myself RoR from
scratch. I’d gotten about 3/4 of the functionality you have (with
none of the style) and this comes out. Thanks a ton! Now I can get
back to doing the application work, and stop dorking around with the
interface so much!

RoR just went from RAD to k-RAD. Thanks a ton!
Thanks for the kind words everyone. If you found the scaffold at all
useful or interesting please drop by the lastest post on my blog and
opon on what you’d like to see built/fixed next. Thanks again.
Yep, you could do that if you really need pagination at this point. A
better solution would involve one where pagination would work more
client side. For example if you deleted 3 rows on the table it should
pull up 3 from the next page instead of just having a shrinking page and
inconsistent data when you go to the next.
We’ll support that eventually, and sooner than later.

Hi, when I go to the download area, I’m presented with three files for
the 2.1.0 release. Two of the files are compressed archives and one of
them is a .gem file. It’s simply not clear as to what to download and
it seem that some steps were skipped to me.

Installing gem now will make extending and maintaining ruby and rails
much easier for you later.
It occurs to me after using a bunch of these - why are the rails gems
not labeled as such?
There are lots of gems, and many of them are generic ruby
packages. Perhaps we could encourage people who make gems for rails to
specify that they’re rails-specific in the names.
It would be much clearer if this was rails_ajax_scaffold_generator.

Doug: Thanks for pointing that out. Honestly, I hadn’t done much with
the original scaffold generator outside of having a different controller
name than the model name. I will add this into my test scenarios and
hopefully release a minor point release to cover this issue. Thanks
again for bringing it to my attention.
