I have a form and I am trying to pass a next_question param which will hold a value that is returned by a javascript function. Is this possible? I am new to using :with and javascript and have read documentation on it as well as an entire page explaining it with examples but I still dont really understand how to do this, or if it is even possible. :with => "''next_question=''javascript: getNextQuestion()" Thanks in advance, chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

When using form_remote_tag I use :complete to clear a text_field for example. I imagine if you had a div with an id you could use that javaScript function to change the innerText of that div upon complete to add the next question.

Fred, I''m sorry, that was the page I was reading. I found a link to it in another forum. I have tried several different ways of doing this and none of them seem to be working for me. From one of the last 2 examples on your page it seems like the following should work but I am not having any luck. :with => "''next_question=''+getNextQuestion()" I am glad to hear this is possible though.

Remember that in javascript you need an explicit return statement, and use encodeURIComponent.

One last question and then I am giving up. It seems like nothing is
getting passed over at all. The following should pass next_question to
the controller with a value of 6. In the controller I should be able to
access it by saying params[:free_response][:next_question] correct?
<% form_for(:free_response, :url => {:action =>
''next'', :question =>
@question.id}, :with =>
"''next_question=''+encodeURIComponent(6)") do
|form| %>
Sorry for all the questions I am just completely lost on this one. I
tried the encodeURIComponent() before and nothing changed so I kept
changing it around.
Chris
