I'm implementing a category and subcategory. However, it is using only 1 model with the gem 'awesome_nested_set', so when I click my first collection_Select, it will process my Ajax and return an instant variable for my controller and get the category for the second collection select. I'm almost done, but I still have a little problem.

When I load the page, it gives me an error: "might expect an instance of array". I know why this happens, it's because when I load the page, it actually loads the js, but initially, I haven't clicked the first collection_select. I can't get the value from the select and my controller cannot get the params from there too.

I did try to not run the partial, but my Firebug console shows me red color, but I see it can get the params from the first collection_select.

If I understand your code correctly, there's no reason for _category.html.erb to be rendered until a category has been selected (and in fact it shouldn't be because that's causing your error). So unless I'm missing something, why not just remove the call to render from _form.html.erb?

Edit: And replace it with an empty category_select div, so your AJAX code knows what to replace.

thanks for reply, hmm, right now i changed to a empty div, however, actually when i use firebug debug, it able to GET the ajax request, but it show me red color message, it seems that my controller did not respond javascript and render the _category.

oh yah,my console actually showing this error
ActionView::Template::Error (undefined local variable or method `f' for #<#<Class:0x007f1c040722c8>:0x007f1c04046998>):
1: $('category_select').replaceWith('<%= escape_javascript(render :partial => 'category', :locals => { :f => f, :categoryID => @subcategory}) %>')

app/controllers/javascripts_controller.rb:7:in `dynamic_subcategory'
