Is it possible to do Ajax post requests in rails without the remote helpers? I am trying to do it myself with this code (the coffeescript is below) Right now I am getting a ActionController::UnknownFormat error when I submit the form:
def create
@soup = Soup.new(soup_params)
unless @soup.save
flash[:danger] = "You failed"
end
respond_to do |f|
f.js
end
end
$('form').on('submit', function(event) {
var form;
event.preventDefault();
form = $(this);
return $.ajax('/soup', {
type: 'POST',
data: form.serialize,
success: function(result) {
return form.remove();
}
});
});
= form_for(Soup.new) do |f|
= f.text_field :name
= f.number_field :age
= f.submit
