How to pass a Ruby Array to a javascript function?

Rails
1

I am passing a ruby array @myArray to a javascript function via rjs

page << “{ $
(‘my_calendar’).calendar_date_select.classForMatrix(’#{@calendar_matrix}’);}”

the js function is the following :

classForMatrix: function(calendar_matrix) {
for (var i = 0; i<42; i++) {
cell = this.calendar_day_grid[i];
console.log(calendar_matrix(i));
if (calendar_matrix(i) == 1 ) {cell.addClassName(“closed”);}
}
},

and I get the following js error
TypeError: calendar_matrix is not a function

where am I wrong ?

thanks for your lights

if calendar_matrix is an array you need calendar_matrix[i] not
calendar_matrix(i).
On top of that you probably need to make it look like an array (ie
enclose it in [], separate values with commas etc…). The
array_or_string_for_javascript looks like it will do that for you.

thanks a lot I realize it

using the @calendar_matrix.to_json send correctly the array and
that’s it…
