Passing query parameter to the index action results in wrong url

[christoph-buente]

I created a new rails + spine app with a single model and just the index action. It looks like this:

class App.Candidate extends Spine.Model
  @configure 'Candidate', 'name', 'address'
  @extend Spine.Model.Ajax

  @url: 'http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search'

The url is not my rails app url, but a remote server, which i want to trigger. Now i need to pass some query paramter to the index action.

App.Candidate.fetch({data: $.param({q: "Bank in Berlin", address_details:1, format: "json"})});

The resulting query looks like this:

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?%22q=Bank+in+Berlin&address_details=1&format=json%22

%22 is the double quote character. So how can i avoid this? Did not find something usefull in the spine documention except the pagination stuff. But this did not seem to help.

Thx Chris
