Get remoteField name in Grails controller action

Question

I have a Grails gsp view with a remoteField. The remoteField calls a controller action. In the controller action I would like to know the name of the remoteField that invoked the controller action.

Thank you, Francesco

Just add an attribute like name or id to your remoteField tag and in your controller you will access it through the params.

    <g:remoteField id="myId" controller="book" action="changeTitle" update="titleDiv"  
    name="title"    value="${book?.name}" />

in controller

  def changeTitle() {
     println params.id
  }
