link-to

I am building a fairly simple recipe app to learn RoR, and I am attempting to allow a user to save a recipe by clicking a link rather than through a form, so I am connecting the user_recipe controllers 'create' function through a link_to. Unfortunately, for some reason the link_to is calling the index function rather than the create. I've written the link_to as <%= "save this recipe", :action => 'create', :recipe_id => @recipe %> this link is on the user_recipes/index.html.erb and is calling the 'create' function of the same controller. It doesn't seem to make a difference if I include the

I have the following: <%= link_to my_path, method: :delete, confirm: 'Delete?', class: 'link-delete', 'data-message' => 'Are you sure?', 'data-severity' => 'danger', :remote => true do %> <i class="icon-trash"></i> <% end %> which brings up a Bootstrap Modal for confirmation, and I wanted to hook onto the ajax call that so that I can display a spinner or some kind of text. I know that I can use unobtrusive javascript to listen to the click event like so, if I DON'T use ':remote => true' in my link_to jQuery -> $('.link-delete').live 'click', (event) -> $('.link-delete').html("Loading...") #THE

i am wondering if the basic link_to syntax is completely broken in current rails3 master or if i am doing some wrong syntax here. = link_to "name", nil, :onlick => "alert('Hello world!');" should actually produce an alert on click. very simple. does not work on my rails3 project! (also no error output!) any ideas? for the general link_to syntax i could not find an example where i could combine a link_to_remote with a confirmation, remote and html class (see my try below) = link_to "delete", {:action => "destroy", :remote => true, :method => :delete, :confirm => "#{a.title} wirklich Löschen?" }

In index.html.erb I display all products, and next to each product I have Edit and Delete actions: <% @products.each do |product| %> ... <%= link_to("Edit", edit_product_path(product.id), :class => 'action') %> <%= link_to("Delete", product, :method => :delete, :class => 'action') %> ... <% end %> The Edit link works ok. However, the Delete link does not work. I get the following error: Unknown action The action 'show' could not be found for ProductsController I guess it is because the request method is GET rather than DELETE. But, I don't know why this happens if I set explicitly :method =>

I just want to use link_to to open a popup. I tried something but it doesn't work: <%= link_to 'Create a new company', new_company_path, :popup => ['create_company', 'height=600, width=600'] %> <br/> Any idea? Thanks! My first stab at this problem would probably look something like this. It assumes you're using rails 3, jQuery and jquery-rails. If you're not, this approach definitely won't work. This exact code isn't tested, so your mileage may vary. I'm just trying to give you an idea on how you might want to think about the problem. If you'd like me to elaborate on how this works, or have
