Hi,

I have a link that uses the link\_to\_remote helper, however the method it  
calls requires the user to log in.

before\_filter :login\_required

How can I get the method to re-direct the user if they are not logged in  
when the Ajax call is made?

Cheers

If you’re doing RJS, do a page.redirect\_to(url).
