Jquery mobile update div tag

Rails
1

Hi,

I’m hoping there’s Rails developers who are working with jquery mobile
and
can help me out with this simple thing. I’m trying to update a div on a
page with an Ajax call and it doesn’t work. If I call jquery directly
from
the browser, the div gets updated. However, if I call it through a
remote
call, the div remains unchanged. Here’s my code:

something
<%= link_to foobar_url, :remote => true, :method => :put, 'data-ajax' => 'false' do %>click<% end %>
def foobar respond_to do |format| format.mobile { render :layout => false } end end $('.mydiv').html('world'); // in foobar.mobile.erb

I don’t understand jquery that well, let alone jquery mobile. I tried
adding .page() and .trigger(‘create’) like I’ve found on some posts, but
that didn’t do anything. Also, I made sure that the cache tag was not
used.

TIA,
J

Hi,

Can you post error your getting that will help you where exactly error
is?.
And Instead of link have you tried simple Ajax call like $.ajax() .

Thanks for replying. There is no error. The Ajax content is sent back to
the browser but it doens’t get executed. What exactly is the simple Ajax
call syntax?
