Google query doesn’t give much useful result on this topic. What we discuss here is if there is a value/function getParameters() in JavaScript returns "message = hello_world" (a URL query). How do you pass the JS variable into controller?
link_to_remote
Most common way is usinglink_to_remote which constructs an Ajax call, but the drawback is you have to handle the params[:message] using RJS template (or please let me know if I was wrong). Here is the example:
<%= link_to_remote "Create Post", :url => {:controller=>'posts', :action =>'new'}, :method => :post, :with =>"getParameters();" %>
As you see, the :with option will eventually become :with => "message=hello_world". A new parameter is accessible by calling params[:message]. But what if I only want to render another page?
capture block
Capture block captures a variable for the view which can be reused. The idea is to call the JavaScript inside capture block to pass it as a Rails variable in view. The@param variable is readable in the view.
<% @param = capture do %>
<%= javascript_tag "document.write(getParameter());" %>
<% end %>
link_to_function
Remember that we have already passed the JavaScript value to@param variable, it is used here. An inline redirect_to does the trick, that redirects to the new action and value is accessible by calling params[:message].
<%= link_to_function "Create Post" do |page|
page.redirect_to "/posts/new" + "?" + @param
end %>
I’m sure that you will have other ways of using these tricks in difference situation, but hope you get the idea and use them whenever is suitable.
