Hello,
In my rails application.html.erb, I have in javascript, an ajax post
call defined in a dom element’s click method. This ajax call works fine
whenever I’m at a view that is a standard render. However, whenever I’m
at anything that is rendered using a rails partial, I get a 405 “method
not allowed” error on that ajax post. All my googling points to 405
errors commonly being caused by violating a brower’s “same origin
policy” for javascript requests.
Does doing an ajax request from a rails partial really cause a “same
origin policy” violation? If so, why?

if you try and break the same origin policy you shouldn’t get a 405
error - the request just doesn’t get made. Method not allowed means
that the method of the http request (GET, POST etc…) isn’t one
allowed by the server for that URI

Hello,
Would you have any pointers as to how I could research this further? Why
would mongrel allow me to do an ajax post to /cart from /users, but the
doing an ajax post to /cart from /users/new is not allowed?
