I am using client_side_validations gem to perform a form validation in rails 3.
everything works fine except when the firefox/ie throws javascript alert
when unique validation ajax runs and return 404 error message.
The author says a 404 means record not found and therefore unique;
Is there any way we can handle this.
I have opened this in : https://github.com/bcardarella/client_side_validations/issues/297
The error you are seeing is because the remote validation cannot find the resource on the server. This is expected, if the resource is not found the resource is unique.
While I think this is the semantically correct status code to return and I do not think the browsers should be showing errors for this I am clearly going to lose. So in the next version of ClientSideValidations I will be changing this behavior to return a status code in the 2xx range. Sorry for the confusion.
