In my nested form I have a link to open a popup with selections. When a selection is made, the popup closes and the selection is added to a text box.
Because I have objects that can be dynamically created in the form I can't just use the id of the object to assign the selection to the input text box.
I have this in my view
<td><%= f.text_field :couchetype, :readonly=>true%></td> <td><%= link_to( image_tag('more.png', :border=>0, :id=>"sample_sample"), {:controller=>"thesaurus", :action=>"list"}, { :popup=>['thesaurus', 'height=800,width=400,location=no,scrollbars=yes']}) %> </td> </tr>
and then this in the popup
function copyData(id,value){ var el = window.opener.document.getElementById(id); if (!el.value) el.value = value; else el.value = el.value + "; " + value; this.close(); }
I want to send the id of the new object to the popup so that I can refind the text box to assign the selections. How can I do that?
