You would actually be "sending" the data to the server, which would then save the data from the server-side. But, it would give you access to data stored in JavaScript variables allowing you to send it to the server for processing via XMLHTTPRequest (XHR). Also note that you don''t actually have to use a JavaScript framework to use XMLHTTPRequest, but the frameworks sure make things much easier, and browser independent. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
