Rails - Sep 2006 - rails + overlib +forms

Hi there,

I want to put a form into a overlib div.
For Example:

<input type="button" value="Show Form"
onclick="return overlib(''Not
needed'', STICKY, CAPTION, ''The Form'',
CLOSECLICK);">

<div id="overDiv">
 <b>never shown</b>
</div>

Now overlib deletes the html inside my div when it shows the popup and 
all i see is ''Not Needed''.

What i need to do now is to construct the form in my action and pass it 
as a parameter to the overlib call:
<input type="button" value="Show Form"
onclick="return overlib(<%=
@my_form %>...

Although i''m new to rails i realize that this is kind of ugly.
So thought i might ask you guru''s if you know of a nicer way to solve 
this problem.

best,
Marc
