@djangst: that's what I've ended up doing. Upon reflection, I'm
wondering why I thought everything needed to be in a form. Works fine
without it, as in:

<%= hidden_field_tag("authenticity_token", form_authenticity_token, :id
=> "authenticity_token") %>
<%= text_field_tag("raw_address", nil, :size => 96, :id =>
"raw_address") %>
<%= select_tag("occupants", options_for_select([0.5, ... 8.0], 2.0)) %>
<%= submit_tag("search for address", :onclick => "geocodeAddress()") %>
