    copied!<p>I'm adding an ajax form through an ajax call from a similar form. The newly added form doesn't work. I'm using rails 3 and jquery. Here is my code:</p> <p>update.js.erb: /* adds a form that can be used to create a new Xyz. Submitting the added form should use the create action which executes create.js.erb */</p> <pre><code>$("#mytable tr:last").after("&lt;%= escape_javascript(render 'shared/xyz', :object =&gt; Xyz.new)%&gt; "); </code></pre> <p>create.js.erb: /* adds a form that can be used to edit the created xyz. Submitting the added form should use the update action which execute update.js.erb */</p> <pre><code>$("#mytable tr:last").after("&lt;%= escape_javascript(render 'shared/xyz', :object =&gt; @xyz)%&gt; "); </code></pre> <p>and the form shared/_xyz looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;tr&gt; &lt;%= form_for(object, :remote =&gt; true) do |f| %&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;%= f.check_box :completed %&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;td&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :name %&gt; &lt;/td&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; </code></pre> <p>If a page contains this form (either as an update or a create action). This form will work as expected. However, if this form is added to the table through the above mentioned ajax calls, the form doesn't work. The form will be added successfully and it will appear fine. The css looks fine. But, the form will not submit anything.</p> <p>Am I missing something?</p> <p>Thanks</p>
