    <p>developing my first Rails application here. Trying to get jQuery working in my views, which as I understand, should simply work 'out-of-the-box' with my current version of Rails 3.2.8.</p> <p>Here's what I got:</p> <ul> <li><p>A view called <em>register#index</em> (with a controller called 'register'):</p> <pre><code>&lt;head&gt; &lt;%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", controller.controller_name %&gt; &lt;%= javascript_include_tag "application", controller.controller_name %&gt; &lt;/head&gt; </code></pre></li> <li><p>Two JS files being loaded by this view: <em>application.js</em> and <em>register.js</em></p> <p><em>application.js</em>:</p> <pre><code>//= require jquery //= require jquery_ujs //= require twitter/bootstrap </code></pre> <p><em>register.js</em>:</p> <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){ alert("Hello, jQuery!"); }); </code></pre></li> </ul> <p>When I load the page through my browser, I can see the jQuery.js files included, and my <em>register.js</em> loaded, which now has been converted to:</p> <pre><code>(function() { }).call(this); </code></pre> <p>The <code>alert()</code> call is missing (and doesn't trigger). Why is this blank? Is this a problem with my gem, or a problem with my jQuery syntax?</p> <p>Some additional things worth noting:</p> <ul> <li>Gemfile includes <code>jquery-rails</code>, and I've run <code>bundle install</code> and <code>rails g jquery:install</code></li> <li>Even if I put in jQuery other than <code>alert()</code>, the function body still shows up blank.</li> <li>I have cleared my caches between each test.</li> <li>There are no JavaScript errors reported by the browser (Chrome)</li> <li>This code is more or less copy/pasted directly from the jQuery tutorial.</li> </ul> <p><strong>EDIT</strong>: Added how my javascript tags are included in the page.</p>

    2. COHey fkreusch, I added the code for how the javascript files are included in the view above. It's done with one `<% javascript_include_tag %>`

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
