Ruby on Rails

Hi,

Anybody know why :onchange works here...
<%= select_tag "Minisections",
options_from_collection_for_select(@minisections, :id, :title, :selected
=> @minisection.id), {:onChange => "{alert('Minisection has been changed
to x !')}"} %>

but NOT here (to call a function)...
<script type="text/javascript">
function xyz() {
"{alert('Minisection has been changed to x !')}"}
</script>

<%= select_tag "Minisections",
options_from_collection_for_select(@minisections, :id, :title, :selected
=> @minisection.id),
{:onChange => "xyz()"} %>

The function is at the top of the .html.erb page. I have used a similar
format with :onclick and it works fine.

Thanks,

DC
