try something like this:

rhtml: \<%= text\_field\_with\_auto\_complete :person, :nachname, {}, &nbsp;&nbsp;{ &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;:select =\> 'name', &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;:after\_update\_element =\> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"function(element,value) " + &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"{ " + &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;remote\_function(:update=\>'Kundendaten', &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;:url=\>{:action=\>:update\_kundendaten}, &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;:with=\>"'adr\_id='+value.id") + ";" + &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"}" &nbsp;&nbsp;} &nbsp;&nbsp;%\>

controller: def update\_kundendaten &nbsp;&nbsp;#params[:adr\_id] should be ok in controller end

but with this solution i have the problem that the autocomplete is only working on IE. FF wont show the autocomplete popup. ☹
