Backbone.js destroy problem

Question

i'm having a problem with destroy method. I can save and see the HTTP activity in my firebug but when i use destroy method i can't see anything. Can anybody explain why ?

Backbone.emulateHTTP = true;
Backbone.emulateJSON = true;

var Hacker = Backbone.Model.extend({
      url:"http://localhost/backbone051/save.php",
});

var hacker = new Hacker();
hacker.set({name:"Herman Ganteng",age:"23"});
hacker.destroy(); //doesn't show any activity :(

Answer 1

Your model has no Id field. Typically the Id would be populated by a previous fetch call. In this trivial example you could hard code one like this:

var Hacker = Backbone.Model.extend({
     id: "something",
     url:"http://localhost/backbone051/save.php",
});

This will result in a POST at the url specified.
