Observe_field and :function

Rails
1

Hi,

I m using the observe_field helper with the :function attribute.

If I do the following everything it works without any issue:

<%= observe_field ‘select_gender’, {:function => “(value == ‘2’) ?
$(‘record_ohrmarke’).value = ‘a boy’:
$(‘record_ohrmarke’).value = ‘a girl’;”} %>

I would like to perform a more complicated processing and I thought it
would be nice to do something like that:

…
…

<%= observe_field ‘select_gender’, {:function =>
“handle_gender_change(element,value);”} %>

However, that results in an js error telling me that
handle_gender_change is not defined…

Would be great if somebody could help me out here with the correct
way.

thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

well, just to give myself a response… :slight_smile:

I was nt able to get it up and running with “infile” javascript. But
if I place the function in a normal .js file everything is working
fine.
