Here is my controller/action

 def index
    @accounts = Account.search(params[:search_login])
    respond_to do |format|
        format.html # index.html.erb
        format.json { render json: @accounts, :miles => "23"}
    end
end

And here is Ajax Call

    function GetMiles()
{
  $.ajax({url: "/accounts?" + "search_login=" + $('#account_number').val(),
        dataType: "json",
        success: function( data ) {
        alert(data.miles)
        response($.map(data.acc, function( item1 ) {
          alert(item.account_number)
        }
