Hi Guys,

After my request for help towards figuring out how to not include a 
stylesheet in the menu, I thought it would be quite good to try to 
create an extension that allows me to specify a property which I could 
use to add pages to a menu.

I read through most of how the PageAttachments extension works and it's 
really neat (in my opinion) how it extends the Page model and the way 
that the Edit and New pages are changed to include fields to attach 
files, etc.  I've set up the extension in exactly the same way as 
PageAttachments, but I'm facing a problem in trying to add items to the 
database.

Basically, I have an after_save filter that gets called when you try to 
save the page.  All I need to figure out now is how to get the page ID 
of the record that was just saved, and more importantly, the parameters 
that were entered into the partial added to the new and edit page. 

If I understand it correctly, the PageAttachments uses AJAX for 
uploading files to a temporary location and then saves them in the 
after_save filter by iterating through an array that is populated with 
the names of the files that were uploaded.  I don't need something that 
complex (and I'd prefer not to use AJAX), so I'm wondering how to access 
the text field!  (Let's say I have a text field called 'property' that I 
would like to add).  I know that this may be a Rails issue (rather than 
specific to Radiant), but I'm hoping someone can point me in the correct 
direction with this.

Thanks for all the patience, guys!

Cheers,
Mohit.
