Rails 3 - Category Filter Using Select - Load Partial Via Ajax
- by fourfour
Hey.
I am trying to filter Client Comments by using a select and rendering it in a partial. Right now the partial loads @client.comments. I have a Category model with a Categorizations join. This all works, just need to know how to get the select to call the filter action and load the partial with ajax. Thanks for you help.
Categories controller:
def filter_category
@categories = Category.all
respond_to do |format|
format.js # filter.rjs
end
end
filter.js.erb:
page.replace_html 'client-not-inner',
:partial => 'comments',
:locals => { :com => Category.first.comments }
show.html.erb (clients)
<% form_tag(filter_category_path(:id), :method => :put, :class => 'categories', :remote => true, :controller => 'categoires', :action => 'filter') do %>
<label>Categories</label>
<%= select_tag(:category, options_for_select(Category.all.map {|category| [category.name, category.id]}, @category_id)) %>
<% end %>
<div class="client-note-inner">
<%= render :partial => 'comments', :locals => { :com => @comments } %>
</div><!--end client-note-inner-->
Hope that makes sense.
Cheers.
