How do I specify “:layout => false” in Rails' respond_with?

Question

I have this setup:

class UsersController < InheritedResources::Base
  respond_to :html, :js, :xml, :json

  def index
    @users = User.all
    respond_wi         


        

Answer 1

Assuming you need JSON for an Ajax request

class UsersController < InheritedResources::Base
  respond_to :html, :js, :xml, :json

  def index
    @users = User.all
    respond_with(@users, :layout => !request.xhr? )
  end
end

This seems like the cleanest solution to me.
