Rails - Sep 2005 - get params in new form for a bookmarklet

Hi,

(perhaps this one is easy, but I''m kind of a newbie ;)):

I want to make an Bookmarklet, with which I can post new Links in my link form:

http://localhost:3000/link/new?link[ur]=http%3A//documentation.rubyonrails.com/&link[title]=Ruby%20on%20Rails&link[text]=sometext

How is this done the best way?

This one works in my controller
    if params[:link]
      @link = params[:link]
    end	
means, the link array ist filled correctly, but the values aren''t
displayed in my form. Also
  <%= error_messages_for ''link'' %>
throws an error than :(

Thanks for solutions,
Beate

(sorry if this comes twice, I sent it 22h ago, but it wasn''t displayed
here.)

@link = Link.new(params[:link]) should work, though it won''t save it
to the database.  You''ll need to call @link.save somewhere, or use
Link.create() instead of Link.new().
