ROR and Thickbox

Hi there,

I’m trying at present to get thickbox (and jqeury) work with ROR.

Well… the first step I made was adding the javascripts of thickbox and
jqeury to my controller:

Then I added the following line to jqeury.js at the bottom:

jQuery.noConflict();

Now, I had to replace all $() in thickbox.js with jQuery()… a simple
find and replace made it…

Now, I wanted to test it out and added the following code to one of my
rhtml’s:

<a href="<%= url_for_file_column(“adimage”, “image”) %>" title="<%=
@adimage.displayname %>" class=“thickbox”>
<%= image_tag url_for_file_column(“adimage”, “image”,“thumb”) %>

This code works so far… a modal windows gets opened but the image
doesn’t gets displayed… and I found the erorr. The browser tries to
fetch the url with a randon number at the end

(example): URL+random=656565655

My app tells me then, that this url couldn’t be found… if I remove the
random-stuff it works… but well… thickbox adds me this random-string
to the url… when I remove this url, thickbox doesn’t work anymore.

Does anyone know a fix for this problem ?? maybe a url-rewrite or
something similar ??

Bye and thanx for reading,

Alex
