Uploadify and rails 3 authenticity tokens
- by Ceilingfish
Hi chaps,
I'm trying to get a file upload progress bar working in a rails 3 app using uploadify (http://www.uploadify.com) and I'm stuck at authenticity tokens. My current uploadify config looks like
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#zip_input").uploadify({
'uploader': '/flash/uploadify.swf',
'script': $("#upload").attr('action'),
'scriptData': { 'format': 'json', 'authenticity_token': encodeURIComponent('<%= form_authenticity_token if protect_against_forgery? %>') },
'fileDataName': "world[zip]",
//'scriptAccess': 'always', // Incomment this, if for some reason it doesn't work
'auto': true,
'fileDesc': 'Zip files only',
'fileExt': '*.zip',
'width': 120,
'height': 24,
'cancelImg': '/images/cancel.png',
'onComplete': function(event, data) { $.getScript(location.href) }, // We assume that we can refresh the list by doing a js get on the current page
'displayData': 'speed'
});
});
</script>
But I am getting this response from rails:
Started POST "/worlds" for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-04-22 12:39:44
ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken (ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken):

This appears to be because I'm not sending the authentication cookie along with the request. Does anyone know how I can get the values I should be sending there, and how I can make rails read it from HTTP POST rather than trying to find it as a cookie?
