When a form is being generated rails automatically adds something like
this:
< input name="authenticity_token" type="hidden" value="11ff3908e6cd4be7b4041a93b783829ce6b12349" >
If view does not contain form ("authenticity_token") InvalidAuthenticityToken is being raised.
So You can do something like this in your view to make your authenticity
token available to your javascript in your views.
<%= javascript_tag "window._token = '#{form_authenticity_token}'" %>
That will make your authenticity token available to your custom
javascript Ajax requests. If you're using prototype.js and you want to
do a custom PUT, you do something like this.
new Ajax.Request ('/products/1', {
method: 'put',
parameters: 'product[name]=chair&authenticity_token=' +
window._token});If you use Jquery :=
$.ajax({
url: "people/1,
global: false,
type: "PUT",
data: ({'person[name]' : 'hey',authenticity_token : window._token}),
dataType: "html",
success: function(msg){
//ur msg;
}});
