I have 3 tables A, B and C Table A has_many Cs Table B has_many Cs so C contains 2 foreign keys, A_id and B_id) I have a screen with 2 lists : A list and B list I would like to be able to create a C record by simply dropping an A element on a B element I tried this : <ul id="A_list"> <% for A in @As %> <% draggableA_id = "draggableA_#{A.id}" %> <li id=<%= draggableA_id %> class="draggableAs"> <% A.name %> </li> <%= draggable_element(draggableA_id, :revert=>true) %> <% end %> </ul> <ul id="B_list"> <% for B in @Bs %> <% droppableB_id = "droppableB_#{B.id}" %> <li id=<%= droppableB_id %> class="droppableBs"> <%= B.name %> </li> <%= drop_receiving_element(droppableB_id, :accept => "draggableAs", :with => "''draggableA='' + (element.id.split(''_'').last())", :url => {:action=>:create_C} )%> <% end %> </ul> It drops OK, but : 1) The problem is, the ":with" parameter takes only one key. How do I convey the second one ? It doesn''t seem to accept a hash... 2) When I debug, I see that the draggableA_id that I drop is always the last draggableA_id, whichever draggableA I drag... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It doesn''t seem to accept a hash...There''s some examples of the usage of :with here: http://www.spacevatican.org/2008/5/17/with-or-without-you-link_to_remote-s-mysterious-parameter (it''s mostly about link_to_remote but that doesn''t matter) Fred --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
