Back button for AJAX in rails

Rails
#1

Greetings all,

I am wondering are there any thing like link_to_remote(:update, :url) in
rails which preserves the navigation feature (back & forward button as
well as bookmarks) of the browser? Thanks very much!

Cheers,
Difei

Nothing is built into Rails.

Just design your site to work with the Back button. A good way of doing
this
is to make the site without Ajax, and then add it with the UJS plugin.

The original poster was looking for an ajax history plugin (a plugin
that automatically maintains an ajax history). Don’t think one exists
however.
