Help on sending an array in ruby to javascript method

hi all,

I am new to ruby on rails and doing a small application as I am
learning ruby on rails…

Problem:
Basically I want to send an array @all_languages to a javascript method
… and be able to access the array in it…

Details:
I have an array of (language_name,language_id) pairs in variable
@all_languages
Eg: [ ( English, 1 ) , ( French, 2 ) , ( German, 3 ) ] …

I am displaying every language as a row in a table

I have a link called add_lang_row which calls a javascript code to
dynamically add a new row with language_name select box

the javascript code add_lang_row takes a parameter of array of
languages described above ie array of (lang_name, id ) pair which is
used to fill the select options…[ this is working fine given my
parameter is proper ]

But I cant call the script as

Add country

so i tried …

I am getting syntax error … :frowning:
I am sure ruby will have some cool way of doing this … as with habtm
etc etc…

can anyone help me here…
