Before my form initiates an AJAX request, I want to call a function.

I see that for link_ to_remote there is the handy :before option… “Called before request is initiated.”

here is my source:

<% form_remote_for(@news, :url => {:action => 'create'}) do |f| %>

Before the request is initiated, I want to call myFunction()
