Rails: Edit record in Bootstrap modal

Question

I\'m trying to use a Bootstrap modal in Rails to edit a record, but I can\'t get the modal to scope to the current record

The static link is

<%= lin         


        

Answer 1

Another way to do it is like so:

just create a remote link:

link_to "edit", edit_ticket_path(ticket), class: "btn btn-mini", remote: true

Then in your views, add a edit.js.erb file:

$("#myModal").html("<%= j render 'new' %>");
$('#myModal').modal('show');

and change your new.html files to _new.html
