I am using simple_form gem and generating the form I am specifying the remote:true option like this:
<%= simple_form_for @webinar, validate: true, remote:true do |f| %>
So, the output html for the form is the following fragment:
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" action="/webinars" class="simple_form new_webinar" data-remote="true" data-validate="true" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="new_webinar" method="post" novalidate="novalidate"> ... </form>
As I checked, using the standard form_for helper is adding the data-remote='true' to the form when remote:true options is used. And as you can see from the generated html, when I am using the simple_form gem there is such attribute, too.
So, in my controller I have:
def create
@webinar = Webinar.new(params[:webinar])
respond_to do |format|
if @webinar.save
format.html { redirect_to @webinar, notice: 'Webinar was successfully created.' }
format.js
format.json { render json: @webinar, status: :created, location: @webinar }
else
format.html { render action: "new" }
format.json { render json: @webinar.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
But, always the format.html is used. What i am doing wrong?
EDIT:
I have used logger.debug request.format to check what is the actual format ask for and in the log file it was:
text/html
So, the issue must be in the simple_form generated form - what can be wrong there when we have "data-remote=true"?
