[Facebooker-talk] FBJS, Ajax, Select box, Dialog

[Alan Larkin]

Im thinking that this might be less wrong.

<fb:js-string var="successCallback">
   new Dialog().showMessage('Dialog', 'Ok');
   return false;
</fb:js-string>

<%= select_tag :player, options_for_select(...),
     :onchange => "Ajax.Request(this.getValue(), { onSuccess: successCallback 
});" %>

because I dont think the variables and functions in my original onSuccess code 
were being subjected to FBJS renaming. I am _guessing_ that using fb:js-string 
to prepare the code takes care of this, but there is still nothing happening in 
response to a successful Ajax request.
