javascript HAML partial response for Rails AJAX not working

I'm using HAML to return js for remote:true form

Below is my code:

$('#chat-message').val('');
$('ul.chat').append('#{j render(@chat)}');

This line seems to create an error and does not parse correctly.

When I delete the second line it works fine with first line.

What could be wrong?

Below is the error:

ActionView::MissingTemplate at /chats
=====================================

You need to use double quotes " not single quotes ' for expression inside #{j render(@chat)} to be evaluated:

$('ul.chat').append("#{j render(@chat)}");

To get string interpolation you need " ", not ' '

So do:

"#{j render(@chat)}"
