Subject: Re: Saving form fields not working

I think the problem is with

params[:fltAvailable]

where did you come up with this?

may I suggest (temporarily) replacing shared with this:

def shared
render :text => params.to_yaml
end

and then looking at your html source. It'll show you what the params  
key SHOULD be.
