Rails spinoffs - Aug 2006 - Easy Ajax.Request Question

When you assign a function to an Ajax event:

{ ... onComplete: showInfo }

I see that the Ajax object is passed into the showInfo function, but how
would I pass in additional variables I''ll need, or can I custom define
what
I''ll need in the Ajax options hash and access it that way?

Thank you
Daniel

Just proxy the function with a closure :

{ onComplete: function(ajaxObj) { 
showInfo(ajaxObj,anotherParam1,anotherParam2) } }

The options hash could be used to piggy-back your own options although 
the closure method described by Matt seems like a less fragile method.

Thanks Matt and Eric, it''sa working.
