I didn't quite understand what you meant.
However, this whole approach is having numerous problems, though I did get an rjs focus to work. I'm not sure if it's because there is a table inside the form, but the basic thing is I want to change form fields using ajax. If you have a some text fields and some selects like say: <%= select_tag :data_format, options_for_select (['t1','b1','ascii'],@fmt) %> <%= select_tag 'transaction[level]', options_for_select (['','level-1','level-2'], level) If you select ascii, I want to dynamically change the transaction [level] select to be a different set of selections through an observer. and then add a checkbox: <%= check_box_tag 'transaction[EOG]', eog, checked %> It doesn't seem to work that I can update part of a form when there is a table involved. If I try to re render the whole form, the current problem is that I send the data back from the form_observer, but say a user types in an input field and he types 'abc'. The observer calls the server and sends 'abc', but after that he types 'xyz'. The server in this strategy will re render the form, and that field will go back to 'abc' erasing part of the users input. When I have tried to just use field observers and save all the fields in session variables, if I have a button that looks like a submit button, what sometimes happens is the user can rapidly type something and hit the submit button and submit will fire before the observer and it won't submit all of the data. The page I'm having the problem with seemed like it was working ok along time ago until someone may have changed it, they may have added a table. I'm not sure, but it may be the table that is giving me the trouble.
