Hi Chris How do I add jquery and ajax to the comments form from your tutorial?
I wrote some jquery to accomplish this here is the code.
$(window).load(function(e){
$("#comment_body").on('click',function(){
$(this).removeAttr('placeholder');
});
var comment = $("#comment_body").val();
var id = '#{params[:video_id]}';
$("#comment_body").keypress(function(event) {
if (event.which == 13) {
var request = $.ajax({
type:"POST" ,
url: '/videos/comments' ,
data:{ "comment":$(this).val()},
timeout : 5000
});
request.success(function() {
$("#error-information").html("comment has been posted");
});
request.error(function(httpObj, textStatus) {
if(httpObj.status==401){
window.location ="http://localhost:3000/users/sign_in";
}
});
// Clear out the form so it can be used again
$('#comment_body').val('').blur();
$("#comment_body").attr('placeholder', 'Join The discussion...');
}
});
});
But I keep getting this error from the comments controller?
NoMethodError in CommentsController#create
undefined method `comments' for nil:NilClass
at this line @comment = @commentable.comments.new comment_params
Now can someone tell me exactly what I am doing wrong here?
