Redbox + will_paginate

Rails
1

Hiya,

I’m trying to use Will_paginate with the RedBox plugin but having
problems making it go to the next page of the collection.

as far as i can see will_paginate does not support any kind of :remote
ajax call so each page click can update the div element.

has anyone managed to get will_paginate working within a redbox dialog?

appreciate it,

i found one way to get around it by creating a new remote_link_renderer
helper and then coupling it to the will_paginate call…

class RemoteLinkRenderer < WillPaginate::LinkRenderer
def initialize(collection, options, template)
@remote = options.delete(:remote) || {}
super
end
def page_link_or_span(page, span_class = ‘current’, text = nil)
text ||= page.to_s
if page and page != current_page
@template.link_to_remote(text, {:url => url_options(page), :method
=> :get}.merge(@remote))
else
@template.content_tag :span, text, :class => span_class
end
end
end

but still didnt solve it moving to the next page of results…

<%= will_paginate @photos, :renderer => ‘RemoteLinkRenderer’%>
