Rails link_to sends get instead of message
I have some links that I want to send a POST request, but they send get
<p class="tags">
<% tags.keys.each do |key| %>
<% if tags[key] == 1 %>
<%= link_to by_tag_media_path(:tag => key), :remote => true, :method => :post do %>
<span class="font-18"><%= key %></span>
<% end %>
<% elsif tags[key] == 2 %>
<%= link_to by_tag_media_path(:tag => key), :remote => true, :method => :post do %>
<span class="font-24"><%= key %></span>
<% end %>
<% elsif tags[key] == 3 %>
<%= link_to by_tag_media_path(:tag => key), :remote => true, :method => :post do %>
<span class="font-36"><%= key %></span>
<% end %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
</p>
these links are in the partial name _tags.html.erb and on the index.html.erb page where there is a partial call. I have this js code:
function apply_filters(load_more){
var params = "";
$("a.selected").each(function(i, obj){
params += $(this).text() + "/"
});
$("a.type_class").each(function(i, obj){
params += $(this).text() + "/";
});
if(load_more){
$.post("/media/filtered", {filters: params, load_more: true});
} else {
$.post("/media/filtered", {filters: params});
}
}
$("#filtered_media_path").click(function(){
apply_filters(true);
});
when this js code is called I re-render the _tags.html.erb particle, and the links work fine (sends POST), but when the page is initially displayed, they send a GET request. The html code after rendering is the same in both cases.
Partial class index page:
<span id="cards">
<%= render :partial => "media_cards", :locals => {:media_cards => @media_cards, :tags => @tags, :featured_cards => @featured_cards} %>
</span>
and particle media_cards:
<div class="card media-card search hide-for-mobile">
<input type="text" name="search-value" id="search_value"/>
<span id="tags">
<%= render :partial => "tags", :locals => {:tags => tags} %>
</span>
</div>
by_tags.js.erb:
$("#cards").html("<%= escape_javascript(render :partial => 'media_cards', :locals => {:media_cards => @media_cards, :tags => @tags, :featured_cards => @featured_cards}) %>");
the generated html looks like this:
<a href="/media/by_tag?tag=test" data-method="delete" data-remote="true" rel="nofollow">
<span class="font-36">test</span>
</a>
