    <p>Recently got a new job as a Rails developer, having never previously used the language and it's quite a leap.</p> <p>I'm working on a locked screen effect for the website, where a link can be clicked which blanks the webpage and requires the user to enter their password again in order to remove the overlay. The overlay is a jQuery modal as follows:</p> <pre><code>$().ready( function() { $('.blackoutwindow').jqm({ modal: true, trigger: '.blackout', overlay: 100 }); if (boset) { $('.blackoutwindow').jqmShow(); } }); </code></pre> <p>When the link with id "blackout" is clicked the window appears. The JS variable <code>boset</code> is set in my view from a Rails session var which determines if the user has the screen blanked (so that the blanking persists on refresh, etc) <code>&lt;%= javascript_tag "var boset = #{session[:blanked]} "%&gt;</code></p> <p>Inside the modal div is my Rails password form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%= form_tag passcheck_path, :id =&gt; "passcheck", :remote =&gt; true do -%&gt; &lt;%= hidden_field_tag :email, current_user.email %&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;%= password_field_tag 'password', nil, { :size =&gt; 30, :maxlength =&gt; 80, :class =&gt; :required } %&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;%= submit_tag 'Submit' %&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class="ajaxmessage"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;% end -%&gt; </code></pre> <p>Which (by means which I don't really understand) sends the password to an action in my sessions_controller.rb called passcheck, in a kind of AJAX style, which authenticates the password.</p> <p>Now that I've explained where I am currently, how do I now close the jQuery modal if the password is correct, update the span .ajaxmessage if the password isn't correct, and also, set the session variable when someone originally clicks on the "blank screen" link?</p> <p>Hope I was clear enough, any questions, fire away..</p>

    1. CO`@`Mike: Rather than turning this into a "chameleon question", I'd recommend adding your solution (working or not) as an answer to this question, and then asking a separate question with the problems you have in the solution.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
