Question

I have this code:

$('#my_form .submit').click( ->
  $.ajax( ->
  type: "post",
  url: "????",
  data: $("#myform").serialize(),
  #success: this.saveUserResponse
)

POST   /schedule_details(.:format)                   {:action=>"create", :controller=>"schedule_details"}

I guess this is 2 questions, or looking for the right way to do it. How can I use a shedule_details_create_path and how can I use that in my javascript? Or, is there a better way to do this?

Thank you for any help.

Answer 1

How about unobtrusively AJAXify the form instead of subscribing for the click handler of the submit button:

$('#my_form').submit(function() {
    $.ajax({
        type: this.method,
        url: this.action,
        data: $(this).serialize(),
        success: this.saveUserResponse
    });
    return false;
});

This way you can generate the form using the routing and have its action attribute properly set in the markup. Then your javascript is completely independent.
