Ok, I think I understand what you are doing. I think what you should look
into is using nested forms, meaning where you can have forms for multiple
models and have rails handle all this automatically... if I am
understanding, once you post this you have some work to do on the controller
side to save your data, right? There are two railscasts (at least) where you
could start:

http://railscasts.com/episodes/196-nested-model-form-part-1
http://railscasts.com/episodes/197-nested-model-form-part-2
