Hello!

I need to make sure that an application I’ve built with Ruby on Rails  
works properly in a [Nokia N800](http://www.nseries.com/products/n800/%0A#l=products,n800). Everything goes well until I hit an  
action whose response is RJS where, even if the request gets to the  
server, it is correctly processed, and ends with a “Rendering  
mycontroller/myaction.rjs”, nothing seems to happen on screen.

I checked Flickr’s website (my favourite site regarding use of Ajax)  
with this browser (some type of Opera, as far as I know) and  
everything works smoothly, so it’s not that Ajax or DOM manipulation  
does not work on this device.

I also checked my application with Safari, Firefox, Opera and IE in my  
Desktop, and everything works aswell. This is why I think it must be  
some issue with RJS and Opera.

Anybody has experienced something like this? Any suggestions on what  
to do?

Thank you!

Hi Esti,

A new (official) Mozilla-based browser for the N800 was released to  
developers a few days ago: [http://browser.garage.maemo.org/](http://browser.garage.maemo.org/) with full  
Ajax support.

Won’t necessarily solve your issue, but at least you may be able  
isolate it as an Opera browser-specific issue on the N800.

Cheers,  
Rob

Hi Rob!

Thanks for the quick response!

I actually tried it already with this Mozilla-based browser, I forgot  
to mention it in my message. The good news is that it does work with  
this browser, so I can be fairly certain that the issue is Opera  
browser-specific 🙂 The bad news is that this Mozilla-based browser  
is still beta and looks not as good as the other one, and I’d really  
like my app to be browser independent.

Thanks for the help!
