Hi, I also want a dynamic select menu but I want use jQuery and in my case it doesn't works (I follow a different sly verano's tutorial) follow all my steps
NOTE: I want use a list of data from a database HOW CREATE the MODELS $ rails generate model basket shape:string $ rails generate model apple color:string shape_id:integer $ rails generate model table basket:string apple:string populate the database with a migration $ rails generate migration create_hierarchy /db/20120306193843_create_hierarchy.rb class CreateHierarchy< ActiveRecord::Migration def self.up g1 = Basket.create(:shape => "awesome") g2 = Basket.create(:shape => "normal") a1 = Apple.create(:color => "Green", :basket_id => g1.id) a2 = Apple.create(:color => "Reds", :basket_id => g1.id) a3 = Apple.create(:color => "White", :basket_id => g2.id) a4 = Apple.create(:color => "Purple", :basket_id => g2.id) end def self.down # you can fill this in if you want. end end MODELS I have 3 model @table, @basket, @apple class Apple belongs_to :tables belongs_to: baskets end class Basket belongs_to :tables has_many :apples end class Table has_many :baskets has_many :apples end CONTROLLER in the @table controller I have def index @basket = Basket.find(:all) @apple = Apple.find(:all) @table = Table.new end VIEWS the form is in app/views/tables/index.html.erb file <%= form_for @table do |f| %> <%= f.collection_select(:basket, @basket, :id, :shape, {:prompt =>true}) %> <%= f.collection_select(:apple, @apple, :id, :color, {:prompt => true}) %> <%= f.submit %> <% end %> IN THE ROUTES root :to => 'table#index' NOW when I load the page http://localhost:3000 I have 2 list menu {basket} {apple} **** jQuery ****** I use Rails 3.1 and this is my Gemfile I have ///////////////////// source 'http://rubygems.org' gem 'rails', '3.1.0' gem 'sqlite3' # Gems used only for assets and not required # in production environments by default. group :assets do gem 'sass-rails', " ~> 3.1.0" gem 'coffee-rails', "~> 3.1.0" gem 'uglifier' end gem 'jquery-rails' group :test do # Pretty printed test output gem 'turn', :require => false end ////////////// in the app/assest/javascript/table.js.coffee I have jQuery -> apple = $('#table_apple').html() console.log(apple) $('#table_basket').change -> basket = $('#table_basket :selected').text() options = $(apple).filter("[label=#{basket}]").html() console.log(options) if options $('#table_apple').html(options) else $('#table_apple').empty() but this script doesn't work 'cause onchange the first one {basket} the second one is empty!
