Ajax, 'Requested?' error

I'm on the last lesson for the AJAX section of ruby, but I keep getting this error:

    test: #edit when logged in should get edit and return success.
     (UserFriendshipsControllerTest):ActionView::Template::Error: undefined method
     `requested?' for #<UserFriendshipDecorator:0x4b5f970>

Now I want to fix this error, but I can't find the requested? method it mentions, I've tried to use the find option to locate it in the userfriendshipcontroller, userfriendshipdecorator and their test counter parts.

Let me know what you think.

Hey Allan Evans try adding delegate_all to your UserFriendshipDecorator class.

The reason that "delegate_all" fixes the problems is because a Ruby class only knows what methods it has available to it in its own class. When you're using Draper, by saying "delegate_all", you ask the decorator to ask the model it's decorating for any methods it doesn't know how to execute.
