I am having trouble sending a local variable to a partial. When I call
it from the main program it works, but when I try to do so from a rjs
file, it wont work.
In my main code I have
<% for each name in @list %>
<%= render_partial ‘/printName’, name.id %>
<% end %>
Then in the _printName.rhtml file its simply
<%= "
#{ link_to_remote("test",
:url => {:action => "didItWork",
:id => printName,
:update => 'name_#{printName}'}
}
"%>
Then in the rjs file
if !@name.nil?
page.replace_html “name_#{@name.id}”, render_partial ‘printName’,
@name.id
end
which does not work. Previously I had this working by skipping the
partial and printing the html code within the rjs file, but that
violates DRY
if !@name.nil?
page.replace_html “name_#{@name}”,
"
#{ link_to_remote("test",
:url => {:action => "didItWork",
:id => @name,
:update => 'name_#{@name}'}
}
"
end
Any advice on how to send the variable in the rjs file?
