search for: model_field

Rails names its form fields as model[field] , but you can''t access the value in javascript by document.form.model[field].value. How do you escape the [''s to access the value? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am using the auto complete components in Rails, and if I look at the generated source I see that the id is model_field and the name is model[field]. Given that i am evaluatin params individually , and not part of one form variable, which should I use to call that value with params[:name], model_field or model[field]? Thanks for your help and time, Ben -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
