Rails - Sep 2007 - observe_field and :function

Hi,

I m using the observe_field helper with the :function attribute.

If I do the following everything it works without any issue:

<%= observe_field ''select_gender'', {:function =>
"(value == ''2'') ?
         $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''a
boy'':
         $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''a
girl'';"} %>

I would like to perform a more complicated processing and I thought it
would be nice to do something like that:

<script type="text/javascript">
function handle_gender_change(element, value)
{
  (value == ''2'') ?
         $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''ein
Maedchen'':
         $(''record_ohrmarke'').value = ''ein
Bub'';
};
</script>
.....
....

<%= observe_field ''select_gender'', {:function =>
"handle_gender_change(element,value);"} %>

However,  that results in an js error telling me that
handle_gender_change is not defined...

Would be great if somebody could help me out here with the correct
way.

thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,

well, just to give myself a response... :-)

I was nt able to get it up and running with "infile" javascript. But
if I place the function in a normal .js file everything is working
fine.
