RJS & nested divs

Rails
1

I’m a newbie and I’ve been trying to figure this out for a little while
now, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

case1

case2

With RJS in case1, I can access “new” with page[‘new’]. What would the
RJS syntax be if I wanted to access “item1” in “new2”?

Instead of item1, can you name your divs new-item1 and new2-item1? It’s
really not a good idea to have more than one element with the same ID.

I’m doing this one way and I want to make sure that it’s not as messy as
it feels.

I want to ensure that certain controller methods are only called when
form
params are passed in from the form on my site. In my application.rb, I
have a method called log_current_action which stores the current
controller and action in a session param and moves this info into
last_controller and last_action so that I know from where the user came
in
the app. In application.rb, I call this method from before_filer
:log_current_action before every request is processed.

I want to make sure that a user is processing the forms correctly and my
method does work, but it feels a little clumsy. Any advice?

Thanks,
David

Is there any advice on this? I’m a bit concerned.
