Actaully both failed to notice that you are using the ruby 1.9.2 syntax along with the old 1.8.7 syntax style. I am assuming that you are trying to use this form with an application running on 1.8.7, which is why it is giving you a compilation error. If you are using ruby-1.9.2 you will not get this compilation error. In ruby-1.9.2, you can declare a Javascript json style hash. ie {username: 'John'}
So either you are using ruby-1.9.2 or change (place_id: @place) to (: place_id => @place)
