How to do render partial on jQuery ajax success method with rails 3

Question

I\'m using rails 3.2.1 with jQuery for an ajax call.

My jQuery code is :

jQuery.ajax({
  url: \"/org_pages\",
  data: \'org_id=\'+ org_id,
  type: \"POST         


        

Answer 1

You could create this file : /app/views/org_pages/index.js.erb and put this in your file :

jQuery("#image_center").html("<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial => 'pages/top_link')) %>");

This code will be rendered and executed on success.

Answer 2

try by rendering the partial from the controller as,

def method_name
  render :partial => 'some_partial'
end

and in js,

success: function(result){                      
  jQuery("#image_center").html(result);
}

OR ELSE

create a js.erb file corresponding to that action and inside that paste the following:

jQuery("#image_center").html("<%= escape_javascript(render(:partial => 'pages/top_link')) %>");
