Couple things:
- skip the spaces. The :with option is pretty much whacked into the
query string as-is. For your setup, you'll probably need something
more like (note the single quotes:
:with => "'architect=#{escape_once(project_detail.architect)}'"
(not 100% sure if escape_once is in 2.3.x; you essentially need to
escape the space in project_detail.architect)
- the output from script/server (or the logs) is the best place to
look for params that have wandered off. What does it show when you
execute this request?
Hope this helps!
