I''m trying to pass an object as a parameter on a link_to_remote. What
I do is pretty simple:
link_to_remote ''Insert subquestion'', :url => {:action =>
''add_subquestion'', :question => @question}, :update =>
'''', :method
=> :get
But, obviously, what I get is a string which has the address of the
object. Can I "translate" this string back to the object? Is there a
better way to pass an object as a param?

But it''s a new object. It doesn''t have any id yet. But I think I have a solution. Instead of passing an id, adress or object_id, I''ll pass it''s subquestion''s array length. Then all I have to do is put one more subquestion. Thank you, anyway.
