Code snippet tested with Rails 2.3
def index
# ...
if request.xhr?
html = render_to_string(:partial => "list", :layout => false)
respond_to do |format|
format.html { render :text => html }
format.json { render :json => {:html => html, ... } }
end
end
end
Note: Perhaps you ran into ActionView::MissingTemplate error and this card might help. If you call render_to_string within the format.json block, Rails will only look for an index.json template, but not for an index.erb template.
