Hi,    please any one tell me how can i pass the text_field_with_auto_complete value into link_to_remote in view. Here are the coding in view . <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :game, :title%>

link_to_remote("Find", :url => {:controller => 'account', :action => "findyourgame"},:with =>"'game[title]='$('game_title').value")

In my account controller : i have a action called "findyougame"

def findyourgame     ## i here couldn't get the value like params[:game][:title]. end

Can any one please tell me how can i pass the text value and get in my controller by using link_to_remote. not form submit.

Your with clause is messed up (it needs to be syntactically correct
javascript). You're probably get a javascript error somewhere when you
click on the link. Something like "'game[title]=' + $('game_title').value" would probably work better.
