[Help] Rendering a partial with link_to function&effects

Rails
1

Hello,

I’m trying to render a partial with link_to_function. In a partial
called “_search” I’m calling the method “searching” from
search_helper.rb as follows :

<%searching%>

The method searching looks like this :

def searching
tags = @tags.strip
tags_array = tags.split(’ ')
search_tags = tags_array.collect do |tag|
%(#{tag}X)
end
end

As you see the following link is created for each element in tags: tag1X
tag2X tagX …(X is a link)

Now I want to render a partial, which BlindsUp und Down with the
visual_effects helper BlindUp,BlindDown when clicking on a link next to
the link “X”.

I tried :

def myhelper
page.replace (“nav”, :partial=>‘searchnavi’)
end

def searching
tags = @tags.strip
tags_array = tags.split(’ ')
search_tags = tags_array.collect do |tag|
%(#{tag}X{link_to_function “V” do |page|
page.myhelper end}

)
end
end

Is this the right way to do this? Perhaps somebody could give me a hint
how I could first render a partial an then BlindUp and BlindDown it
smoothly over the <div id="search><% search %> and not in it
(like a DrowDown menü).

Thanks for your help and ecxuse my bad english :slight_smile:
