Hi, I just started using the Ajax.Autocompleter api, and it works amazing. But I was wondering if I could add more parameters to the ajay request (as of now it just sends the value that the user has typed) ? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Spinoffs" group.

Check out the :with parameter. That might be what you''re looking for.

That might be what you''re looking for.Excuse my ignorance, but could you please point me to the exact location where I can find more info about :with param. I looked at the documentaton, and I found that I could use either a) new Ajax.Autocompleter(''ac1'',''ac1update'',''/cgi-bin/my.cgi'', {paramName:"typedText", minChars:1} ); which gives me access to the ''typedText'' in my.cgi. Or, b) new Ajax.Autocompleter(''ac1'',''ac1update'',''/cgi-bin/my.cgi'', {parameters:''action=getMatchingText''} ); which gives me access to action ''getMatchingText''...but not the ''typedText''. I am looking to have access to both ''typedText'' and ''action'' parameters in my.cgi.

I was playing around with this, and just discovered that I could do
new
Ajax.Autocompleter(''country676244'',''ac1update'',''/cgi-bin/my.cgi'',
{paramName:"typedText", minChars:1,
parameters:''action=getMatchingText&b=c''} );
This gives me access to both ''typedText'' and
''action'' in my.cgi.
Great!
