Rails spinoffs - Jul 2007 - Need help with slide visual effect

Hi,

I''m trying to accomplish the following:

A) Show a list of items: (this works fine; the number are for
reference only)
1.  <ul>
2.  <% for listing in @list_feeds -%>
3.  <li>
4.      <%= link_to_remote listing.feed.name, { :url => { :action =>
"show_delete_button" } }, :id => listing.id %>
5.      <span id="feed-<%= listing.id %>"
class="delete-button"
style="display:none">
6.        <%= link_to_remote "Delete", :url => { :action =>
"remove_feed", :id => listing } %>
7.      </span>
8.  </li>
9.  <% end -%>
10.</ul>

Once this is rendered and click on the link (created by line#4) the
"Delete" link (created by line#6) (initially hidden) will slide down
into place. When the "Delete" link is clicked the item it appears next
to is deleted.

Now the problem I am having is that how do I display the proper
"Delete" link?

I have the following in the RJS file for "show_delete_button" action
with the name of the element hard coded:
page.visual_effect :toggle_slide, "feed-23"

Somehow I need to send the listing.id to the RJS so that the proper
"Delete" link slides into place.

How do I do that? Is that even possible?

Thanks in advance for the help.
