I have this code:

        <b>Repuestos</b><br />   <select name="repair_ticket[rp_item]">    <% @rp_parts.each do |rp_part| %>        <option value="<%= rp_part.id %>"          <%= ' selected' if rp_part.id == @repair_ticket.rp_item %>>          <%= rp_part.name%>        </option>    <% end %>   </select></p>

  <% form_remote_tag :url => { :action => :add_to_repair, :id => @repair_ticket.id, :aaaa => @repair_ticket.rp_item } do %>     <%= submit_tag "Add repair_part" %>   <% end %>

I don't know how to send the rp_part.name from :aaaa. Is is possible outside a form like the form in new.rhtml?

Hi John, I was originally going to try and correct your code, but perhaps a sample app is easier Please download from http://www.authomedia.co.uk/dev/repairs.zip and see how you get on. The models might not be quite what you have, but it shows a simple RESTful controller setup with a HABTM join table and AJAX create/destroy associations.

Should put you back on track

Ok, thrank you very much. I think this simple app will be very helpful and will be the new base for my project. Anyway, does anybody know if I can do something with my code? For now on, I only want to know it in order to gain experience.
