Erwin,
If I understand what you are trying to do then I was trying to solve a
similar but lesser problem. How to send form data from one method in a
controller to another method in the same controller Iit does seem to
work for your case though). Here is a sample erb:
gather.html.erb
<h1>Gathering transient data</h1>
<% form_tag('transient/show') do %><!--sends to the show method of the
transient controller-->
<p>
<b>First Name</b><br />
<%= text_field_tag "firstname", TransientData.firstname %>
<br/><b>Last Name</b><br />
<%= text_field_tag "lastname", TransientData.lastname %>
<%= submit_tag "Submit" %>
</p>
<%end%>
show.html.erb
<h1>Gathering transient data</h1>
<% form_tag('/transient/gather') do%> <!--and back to gather-->
<p>
<b>First Name</b><br />
<%= TransientData.firstname %>
<br/><b>Last Name</b><br />
<%= TransientData.lastname %>
<%= submit_tag "Submit" %>
</p>
<%end%>
If I change either erb file's line:
<% form_tag('/someothermodel/somemethod')
It did swap form data between controllers.
I hope I understood your question. I am new to ruby.
