Problems with incrementing and multiple submits

Hi,

Can someone help me with the following questions. I am trying to create a link_to_remote link named add. Whenever I click add, a new label and text field will be populated.

Example:

(This is already there) Book 1 text_field add(this is the link) ....when add is clicked.............. .....the following is populated........

Book 2 text_field

My question is how do I increment the number? How do I submit the various fields, populated and the one that is already there, that are in the form ? I read some where that it has to do with the id of the field.

This is my controller

def book   @book = Book.new end

def save_book    @book = Book.new(params[:book])       if @book.save         redirect_to :action => 'some_page'       else         render :action=> 'book'     end   end

def add_book @count = 1    render(:partial => 'additional_book') end

This is my view

......_additional_book.rhtml.........

<tr> <td style="width: 374px;"><label>Book <%= @count %></label></td> <td style="width: 219px;"><%= text_field :book, :book, :id => @count %></td> </tr>

.......book.rhtml................

<div id="content"> <% form_for :book, :url => { :action => :save_book}, :html => { :id => "book" } do |n| %>   <table style="width: 685px; height: 171px;">     <tbody id="abc">       <tr>         <td style="width: 374px;"><label>Book 0</label></td>         <td style="width: 219px;"><%= n.text_field :book %> <%= link_to_remote( "add", :update => "abc", :url =>{ :action => :add_book }, :position => "bottom", :success => "@count ++") %></td>

    </tr>     <tr>       <td style="width: 209px;">         <div id="button">     <p><%= link_to_function 'Previous', "$('book').submit()" -%></p>         </div>   </td>       </tr>     </tbody>   </table> <% end %> </div>
