I have multiple coupons on a page and I'm trying to get comments to work on each coupon. So for each coupon i have a comments form. Im using jQuery + Ajax to accomplish this. Here's what my code looks like.
Coupon Page
<p>Comments:</p>
<% form_for(@comment) do |f| %>
<%= f.label :body %><br /><%= f.text_field :body, :size => "24" %>
<%= f.hidden_field :coupon_id, :value => coupon.id %>
<%= f.submit "Save" %>
<% end %>
Application.js
jQuery.ajaxSetup({
'beforeSend': function(xhr) {xhr.setRequestHeader("Accept", "text/javascript")}
})
jQuery.fn.submitWithAjax = function() {
this.submit(function() {
$.post(this.action, $(this).serialize(), null, "script");
return false;
})
return this;
};
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#new_comment").submitWithAjax();
})
I tried changing the jQuery selector to a class
$(".new_comment").submitWithAjax();
Thinking that would work, now all the submit buttons work, however it posts only the first form on the page.
What can I change to make it so ajax submits the correct form and not the first one?
