Ruby on Rails

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

I would like to search my DB for records using a Model.where
request... Using jquery I have access to the text within the select
option chosen from a drop box. Now, if only I could take this text and
assign it to a ruby instance variable, such as @brand.... I could then
insert the value into the 'where' request and pull the records
corresponding to the selected option.

It seems possible to assign a ruby variable to a jquery var, but not
the other way around. Is there, or could there be, a ruby function to
help with this?

Thanks,
Abram
