Rails - Oct 2009 - Combobox population by means of JQuery and Ajax.

This is the view municipalities.js.erb I have:

<% list_opt = options_from_collection_for_select(@municipalities, :id,
:name) %>
<% puts list_opt  %> #ok! list_opt contains the options
$(''#municipality_id'').html(''<%= list_opt
%>'');

and this is the combobox in the view:
...
Comune <select id="event_municipality_id"
name="event[municipality_id]"></select>
...

if instead of ''<%= list_opt %>'' I manually assign the
string

''<option value="316">Alagna</option>
<option value="317">Albano</option>
<option value="318">AliceCastello</option>
<option value="319">Arborio</option>
...''
into list_opt then the combo municipality_id correctly works,
if I use options_from_collection_for_select doesn''t works (empy
combobox)
but that string is the same of options_from_collection_for_select

then why doesn''t work ? :(

Thank you,
Alessandro

Solved :D

I forgot escape_javascript:

$(''#event_municipality_id'').html("<%=
escape_javascript(opts) %>");

bye,
