The recommended way of dealing with long lines is to move them into a
helper. This makes your views much easier to read, and encourages you to
abstract out repetitive calls.
If that's absolutely unworkable, you can use the pipe character to write
multiline calls in Haml. You have the syntax wrong: you need to put a pipe
character after every line that you want to merge into one line, like so:
= observe_field :lookup_field, |
:url => { :controller => :some_controller, :action => :lookup }, |
:update => :destination, |
:with => "seed" |
