I am using a javascript to redirect to another action. Is there a way to set the flash [:notice] in the javascript? So when the javascript redirects, the new action/view picks up the flash[:notice]? (I suspect I may have to do something like url?notice=.....) ideas? thanks.

I think it would be awkward to call a URL just to add a flash notice to
the site.
Do it in JS only, and "simulate" the flash notice, by showing it using
pure clientside javascript.
Like: document.getElementById("myEmptyFlashNoticeDiv).innerHTML = "my
notice"

@Chris: I think you mis-understood me. I am redirecting to another URL - not to set flash. I would like to keep the context of flash notices that was set - so the redirected url picks it up. @ Andrew: thanks - its a similar approach I was thinking of. Thought there may be a less ''clunky'' way.
