OK, I'm looking for tips and help regarding fetching xml data from an external source and then parsing it into a form.
What do I need to make this happen? Example: I have an Advert Model (which is for books) fields do isbn :string title :string, :required author :string, :required edition :string condition enum_string(:As new, :Good, :OK, :Bad) price :string timestamps end I want to allow the user to click on the "New Advert" link in the Adverts index page, enter the isbn number, then press a button or click a link to do a ajaxified lookup to an API service like isbndb.com to get the rest of the data about the book like author, publisher and populate those fields on the New Advert page, and allow the user to review the data before clicking the Save Advert or Cancel button. Would love some ideas or help. Anything would be very much appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
