Remote link in a remote form - ajax callback only for submit

I have a remote form on my page, which contains a remote link inside:

= form_tag users_path, remote: true, class: 'my-form' do
  .form-group
    = link_to some_remote_path, class: 'btn btn-warning', remote: true
    = text_field_tag 'some_data', 'some_data', class: 'form-control'
  %button.pull-right.btn.btn-primary{type: 'submit'}
    = 'Save'

What it does now, is when you press the 'Save' button, it displays error or success message depending on AJAX response.

This is my Coffee file:

jQuery ->
  $('.my-form').on 'ajax:success', ->
    $(@).find('.indicator.text-success').show().delay(1000).fadeOut(1000)

  $('.my-form').on 'ajax:error', ->
    $(@).find('.indicator.text-danger').show().delay(1000).fadeOut(1000)

But, since there is now another remote link here (link_to some_remote_path, remote: true), my callback is also triggered when I press that link.

I want the message to be shown only when I click on "Save". Moving the remote link outside form isn't an option (by design).

I made some research, but didn't found any applicable solution. Any help is appreciated!

In your CoffeeScript, you can access the element that triggered the event, and make the change only for it.

jQuery ->
  $('.my-form').on 'ajax:success', (e) ->
    // Find the parent form of e.target
    // then do what you need just for that one
    $targetForm.show().delay(1000).fadeOut(1000)
