Rails: confirmation does not display a dialog box

I have a rails application with the following code in one of my views:

<% if @present.taken == false %>
    <%= link_to "I want to buy this present", :confirm => 'Are you sure you want to buy this present?', :action => "taken_toggle", :id => @present.id %>
<% end %>

However, I do not see the javascript dialog showing - it seems that to skip this bit (the action call is valid).

My application layout has the following:

  <%= stylesheet_link_tag :all %>
  <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
  <%= csrf_meta_tag %>

So, I think I have the necessary javascript loaded.

Any ideas why this is not working?

As shown in the documentation,

at

Be careful when using the old argument style, since an additional literal hash is needed:

try using like this

<% if @present.taken == false %>
    <%= link_to "I want to buy this present", { :action => "taken_toggle"}, :confirm => 'Are you sure you want to buy this present?', :id => @present.id %>
<% end %>
