jquery - Setting a rails session in an ajax post -

kind of strange problem, can me out.

i want set session in rails controller hit via jquery ajax post.

its regular rails form submit via ajax

 $.post($(this).attr('action'), $(this).serialize(), function(data){   }, 'json');

which hits leads controller

def create     @lead = lead.new(params[:lead])     @lead.save!      if @lead.save       session[:lead] = "#{@lead.id}"     end    end

however session doesnt seem set across ajax call.

anyone have ideas on this?

did see create being called in controller (did appear in log)?

btw: you're calling save() twice, not problem (calling save multiple times returns true every time if save successful).
