Rails - Feb 2006 - link_to_remote from Controller

Hello--

I?m using Builder::XmlMarkup to create a menu tree and need to have some
gee-whizzy javascript to make the menus expand, fade, twirl and dance. Ok,
maybe not the last bit. Anyhow, because the html is generated mainly through
code like:

xm.li(:id=> ?menu_#{unique_id}?, :class => ?menu?){
  xm << link_to_function(?menu name?, ?function_name?)
}

Unfortunately, link_to_function is in a helper and not accessible to my
controller code. Anyone know how better to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Steve
