This for example does not work: (index.html.erb) ... <% form_tag '', { :id => 'myform', :method => :get } do %> <p><%= radio_button_tag :report, 'by_date', params[ :report ] ||= 'by_date' %><b>By Date</b></p> <p><%= radio_button_tag :report, 'by_donor', params[ :report ] == 'by_donor' %><b>By Donor</b></p> <p><%= submit_tag "Choose" %><p> <% end %>
<%= observe_form( 'myform', :frequency => 1, :with => "report", :action => :index ) %> <%= render( :partial => "reports" ) %> ... Any ideas?
