I have a partial that has a button_to_remote on it wherein a method in
my controller is appropriately executed. In the same partial, but not
in any <form> I have a select box with the id of
"notesboxselect."
Is there any way I can pass the text of what is in this select box, to
the method in my controller called by the button_to_remote? Thanks,
Janna B
