I’m having issues handling output of a inplace editor function. When
the
controller action is successful, it returns the new value that populates
the
DIV and all is well. When it fails, it sends a js alert to the user.
The
problem is, after it sends the alert (and the user clicks OK) it then
spits
back the try/catch javascript code which gets inserted into the DIV.
I’ve
tried returning false but it doesn’t do any good. I also can’t render
:nothing => true because I get a ‘double render error’
Any thoughts?
#in keyword_controller.rb
def set_bid
params[:value].gsub!(/[^\d.]/, ‘’)
if params[:value].to_f == 0.0
render :update do |page|
page.alert(‘You must enter a dollar amount, e.g. 23.22, 0.23’)
end
return false
end
@link = KeywordLink.find(params[:id])
previous = @link.max_bid
@link.max_bid = params[:value]
@link.max_bid = previous unless @link.save
render :text => help.number_to_currency(@link.max_bid)
end
#in view
<%= in_place_editor ‘bid_’ + keyword.id.to_s,
:url => { :controller => ‘keyword’, :action =>
‘set_bid’, :id => keyword.keyword_link.id } -%>
thanks,
