I have developed a new form that I would like to render using ajax in case it fails validations.
In my controller, the code looks like this:
def create
event = CEvent.new(params[:c_event])
respond_to do |format|
if event.save
format.html { redirect_to admin_c_events_path }
else
format.js {redirect_to new_admin_c_event_path(:event => event.as_json, :errors => event.errors )}
end
end
end
The form has the parameter :remote => true, and when I submit the form by clicking on the button, the form is submitted via JavaScript but nothing gets rendered. However, when I reload the page, the required information renders correctly. If I reload the page again, an empty new form appears.
This is what my console output looks like:

Is there a way to render a view without reloading the page?
