Is there a way to set the class of a link in link\_to\_remote? I tried  
adding :class =\> “this\_damn\_class” after the :url hash and it didn’t  
work.

I went ahead and did it manually using remote\_function, i.e.

My Link

{ :action =\> ‘select\_group’, :id =\> @customer } }, :class =\> ‘button’ %\>

of course there is:

\<%= link\_to\_remote( “name”, {:update =\> “mydiv”, :url =\> {:action =\>  
“my\_action”}}, {:class =\> “my\_class”} )%\>
