Rails - Apr 2006 - link_to_remote with form values?

Hi,

I need a way to read a form field and pass its contents as a parameter 
to a link_to_remote call.

So let''s say I have a textarea input:
<%= text_area ''course'', ''topics'', :rows
=> 6, :cols => 60  %>

and later a link_to_remote:
<%= link_to_remote("Hide",
                  { :update => ''my div'',
                    :url => {:action => ''hide_textarea'',
:div =>
''my_div,
                    :course => @course } ) %>

and I want to add the contents of the course_topics textarea as a field 
in my :url hash.

Getting the form value with javascript should be possible, but how do I 
embed that into the ruby code?

Thanks!

I actually have the very same question and have been trying to figure
out a solution for the last hour.  Any help would be appreciated.
