Rails - Jan 2009 - :after_update_element and text_field_with_auto_complete

Hi!
I''m on Rails 2.2.2 and using text_field_with_auto_complete which works
fine.

Now I want to use :after_update_element to send some data back to the
server when my text field is updated.

I have the following code in my view:

<%= text_field_with_auto_complete :company, :name, {},
      {:after_update_element =>
    "function(element,value){" + remote_function(
    :url => { :action => :update_search_session },
    :with
=>"''selected_company_name=''+element.value") +
"}",
    :skip_style => false, :method => :get }
%>

I can see that my controller method (:update_search_session) gets called
allright but I can''t figure out how to access the returned data
(element.value).

Can anyone help?

TIA, Peter

OK finally I got it sorted out.
After a minor bugfix in my javascript, params[:selected_company_name] 
did the trick.

Amazing and smooth... - I just love Rails!
