Monitoring a server-side process on Rails application using AJAX XMLHttpRequest?

If you are not seeing messages in your log file for the call to 'progress_monitor' then it is possible that the request is never being sent Try this: Try using the full URL instead of the relative URL for the Ajax.Request. I have had problems with relative URLs on some browsers with the Ajax. Request Enable Firebug or the IE Developer Toolbar.

You should be able to see if the call to progress_monitor works or not. If there is a java script error then you will see the error clearly using these tools.

1. I tried that but the URL uses GET, I need to use POST for the call to the method, so I just get an Action Controller Exception – Matt Haughton Sep 24 '08 at 12:50 2. In installing Firebug (ashamed to say I haven't been using it) I tried the request in Firefox, it works!

I think it's a Safari bug, I'll google it and add an answer if I find anything. – Matt Haughton Sep 24 '08 at 12:52.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
