I actually tried to add form_for in the partial and it appeared to work. The form within a form wasn't a problem it seemed. However when a validation error was detected, the dynamically rendered partial was gone. When I tried to reselect the partial in the select box, the content I added was wiped out. I'm sure there may be a way to preserve the content after form validation, but it seems like too much work.
At this rate I'll take your advice and seek a different approach using pure javascript. I may also try RJS code directly in the main view via the :function parameter in the observe_field method.
