Prototype JS Ajax requests help

JavaScript
1

Hi everyone, I’m trying out prototype for handling ajax requests. I used a tutorial on submitting a form with it and it works great. Now 'm trying to figure out how to get it to work with submitting only the selected forms input.

So say I have two forms with the same class names and same function called on submit of each form that will process the request and submit to a php file to add the data to a database. Adding different class names isn’t really an option as the script with the forms will be generated by a php script with varying amounts of forms. I guess the best example would be comments on a facebook feed.

So from the tutorial the js is:


<script>
				function sendRequest2() {
				new Ajax.Request("../results/process.php", 
					{ 
					method: 'post', 
					postBody: 'name2='+ $F('name2'),
					onComplete: showResponse 
					});
				}

			function showResponse(req){
				$('show').innerHTML= req.responseText;
			}
</script>



<form id="test" onsubmit="return false;">
	<textarea name="name2" id="name2">
	     Content goes here.
	</textarea>
		
        <input type="submit" value="submit" onClick="sendRequest2()">		

</form>

Any help would be great, I’ve a feeling it’s not that difficult but I’m not to familiar with prototype at the moment and the docs aren’t as well written as jquerys.

Thanks
