Hi, I'd like to conserve the sum total of several text fields on my form, even as I set them to blank upon a user link action.
The following in-line snippet fails to store the value of my sum total field locally for eventual reassignment. (I am re-assigning it because the fields all have an observe_field nexus relating them, which complicates things.) <%= link_to_function "Itemize expenses" do |page| ... local_var = page[:operating_expense_admin_total].value page[:operating_expense_admin_other].value = "" page[:operating_expense_admin_advertising].value = "" page[:operating_expense_admin_management_fee].value = "" page[:operating_expense_admin_total].value = local_var end %> What is the proper way to extract values, store them locally and reassign them , per the attempt above?
