Submit a form remotely

Rails
1

Hi guys,

I am battling with the weirdest problem ever. I’m using rails 3.2.13 and
trying to submit a form remotely and it keeps getting processed as HTML.
I
have the correct line in my application.js file namely:

#= require jquery
#= require jquery_ujs

I have the correct line in my form:

= simple_form_for :non_member_applcation, url: :non_member_applcation,
remote: true, :html => {:id => “non-member-application”, multipart:
true}
do |f|

I have the correct route:

match ‘/non_member_applcation’ => ‘jobs#non_member_applcation’, as:
:non_member_applcation

but when I click submit it just won’t work.

Also note that the form is in a modal, but I have done something similar
to
this before and it worked just fine. Any thoughts? Thanks

Then you’re going to have to use another method to handle this; the
keyhole iframe is a popular trick. Ajax form submissions don’t handle
file elements in a perfectly cross-platform manner, and some JavaScript
toolkits actively exclude them as a means of leveling the playing field.
