Right constructor for Ajax call with requestOptions hash?

I'm have a real hard time getting a little Ajax modal working. Suggestions for correction appreciated. the contents function is getting called, but the fd parameter is null rather than having the string given in requestOptions.

Inside Event.observe(window load): Event.observe(window,'load',function(){ var m; $('mvrLast5').observe('click', function() { m = new Control.Modal($('mvrLast5'), {containerClassName: 'fd', requestOptions: {fd:'http://www.billsaysthis.com/movies?feed=rss2'}, contents: getFeedData(), iframe: true, overlayClassName: 'fd'}); m.open }); });

function getFeedData(fd) { do stuff and return string }

Inside the page is the click to open:

requestOptions is the full hash that gets passed into Ajax.Request. My guess is that you want:

{requestOptions:{parameters:{}}}

Maybe I didn't understand your answer sufficiently, since when the function specified in content is called the parameter is undefined according to Firebug. Here is the revised block:

$('mvrLast5').observe('click', function() { m = new Control.Modal($('mvrLast5'), {containerClassName: 'fd', requestOptions: {parameters: {fd:'http://www.billsaysthis.com/movies?feed=rss2'}}, contents: getFeedData(), iframe: true, overlayClassName: 'fd' }); m.open();
