I want to create new record using Ajax. I got error undefined method submit_to_remote I declared prototype file in layout. waiting for ans.......

Solution

  • Firstly, it looks like your submit_to_remote is trying to define a form - so use form_for or form_tag.

    Secondly submit_to_remote no longer exists in Rails 3. You need the :remote => true option of form_tag, which will let UJS (Unobtrusive JavaScript) step in and make the AJAX happen.

    See some docs.
