I'm using JavaScript Prototype (through Ruby on Rails) to handle some Ajax calls; but in one particular case I'm missing a field from
the form.
I have a layout like this:
+---------+---------+
|
Thing 1 |
Thing 2 |
+---------+---------+-----------+
| o Opt 1 | o Opt 1 | <Confirm> |
| o Opt 2 | o Opt 2 | |
+---------+---------+-----------+
Opt 1 and 2 are Radio buttons, Confirm is a button.
The entire table is wrapped in a form, with code like:
<form action="javascript:void(0)">
<input type="hidden" name="context" value="foo" />
<input type="hidden" name="subcontext" value="bar" />
<table>
<tr><td>Thing 1</td><td>Thing2</td></tr>
<tr><td>
<input type="radio" name="choice" value="1.1" />Opt 1<br />
<input type="radio" name="choice" value="1.2" />Opt 2<br />
</td><td>
<input type="radio" name="choice" value="2.1" />Opt 1<br />
<input type="radio" name="choice" value="2.2" />Opt 2<br />
</td><td>
<input name="choice_btn" type="button" value="Confirm"
onclick="new AJAX.Updater('my_form', '/process_form',
{asynchronous:true, evalScripts:true,
parameters:Form.serialize(this.form)});
return false;" />
</td></tr>
</table>
</form>
But I can see that
the POST generated by clicking
the Confirm button contains
the foo and bar values for
the hidden fields, but not
the choice of
the radio buttons.
Is this because I've got a table inside my form? How can I get around this?
