I have this in place for now. <%= observe_field 'cart_record_attributes__qty',:frequency => 0.1,:url =>{:action => 'calculate', :submit => 'cart_form'},:method =>:get,:with => "'qty='+ element.value" %>
i dont see the parameters being passed in the dvlpmnt log. Im obviously not doing this right. Help? The form is for an instance variable of cart. <% form_for @cart do |f| %> and Record is a child model (cart has_many records) and hence the long name of the qty field(cart_record_attributes__qty).

The answer so far is no, so I just :submit the form. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
