Hi, I''m new in developint rails (but I love rails). I would like to react on changing a field in the view (no model field) from a selection box to show the number of rows (which I used in the controller). In the controller I read the params-hash: ... @rowsperpage = params[''rowsperpage''].to_i ... In the view I have the field, where I like to react directly. ... <%= select_tag("rowsperpage", options_for_select( [[5, 5], [10,10], [25,25], [50,50], [100,100],[200, 200],[500, 500],[1000, 1000]], @rowsperpage ), :onchange=>"alert(this.form.rowsperpage.options[this.form.rowsperpage.selectedIndex].value)" ) %> ... The alert was only an example (I test it also with render, but without a solution). But I could change the values with no reaction. What must I do, that the controller react direcly on my changes. Thanks in advance.

I ask in all sincerity, not having a great grasp yet of Proper Rails Style. - donald --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
