ajax call pass javascript variable in rails 3

Question

<script> var depart_date='11 February 2013';
         var depart_date='21 February 2013';


    jQuery.ajax({

data: { depart: depart_date, return_date: return_date},
    type: 'post',
  url: "/payment/create",

});

This is my ajax call.

In terminal it's value getting as {"depart"=>"11 February 2013", "return_date"=>"21 February 2013"}

But in controller params[:depart] & params[:return_date] shows as nil value.

Don't know where i am doing mistake..

If you are getting values in terminal then you are all right. The only thing is: its params[:return_date] and not params[:return]. The second thing is, you ended the script before ajax function. — sjain

Change depart_date to return_date and end the script at the end as:

<script> 

   var depart_date='11 February 2013';
   var return_date='21 February 2013';

        jQuery.ajax({

    data: { depart: depart_date, return_date: return_date},
        type: 'post',
      url: "/payment/create",

    });

    </script>

Make sure that you defined your params[:depart] and params[:return_date] in your create method of payments controller. Also check what is the value for params[:return_date].

@depart=params[:depart] @return=params[:return_date] this is my code in controller
