Ok, thanks. What I am really trying to do is this which I have been banging my head against: How do I get the dom id to come in? The 2nd line prints properly in firebug and shows the value but the first line just has "#...@next" in it not the value. Same idea as the alert but an IF condition I think.
page << 'if ($("#...@next}").value == "APS") {' page[:"#...@next}"].replace_html 'moo' page << '}' On Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 7:23 PM, André l.
