HTTP request - Ruby on Rails -

i took on else's rails project , have question http requests.

it seems should able pass parameters through http requests, i'm unsure how. example: rake routes shows

put    /auction2s/:id(.:format)                      auction2s#update 

which seems correspond function

# put /auction2s/1   # put /auction2s/1.json   def update     @auction2 = auction2.find(params[:id])     print "hello world"     respond_to |format|       if @auction2.update_attributes(params[:auction2])         format.html { redirect_to @auction2, notice: 'auction2 updated.' }         format.json { head :no_content }       else         format.html { render action: "edit" }         format.json { render json: @auction2.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }       end     end    end 

but can't figure out url need pass to, instance, change

id=18445&done=true 

into function.

any thoughts? function structured right? need pass request in ruby format, not through browser or ajax (which i'm trying)?

you should have form action. in location -> app/views/auction1s/edit.html.erb. edit.html.haml if using haml template engine. form rendered in view , user input sent parameters action on submit of form.
