Say my user creates an Article and an Article has_many :links. The edit form for article contains an "add link" link_to_remote that brings up an edit line for links for further reading. The problem is that there is that the Article is not yet saved, so it''s unclear how to accumulate or remove these items. I''m sure others have implemented similar things. Hints?

So you''re advocating:
link_to_remote ''new child'', :url => {:action =>
''do_something''}
def do_something
save_master_record
fall_through_to_rjs_add_child_records
end
BTW: Sorry about the numerous posts of the same question. Nabble hung and I
didn''t know whether the post got through. Maybe email *is* better :)
