rails form_for submit to "save" or "add another"

I have a representation of a TrainingDrill that has many DrillSteps.

class Drill < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :drillsteps
end

class DrillStep < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :drill
end

When creating a new Drill step I'd like to provide a "save" button and an "add another" button.

The "save" is straight forward and working fine

%= form_for [@drill, @drill_step] do |f| %>
...
<div class="actions">
  <%= f.submit %>
</div>

That routes back nicely to my controller and creates the new drillstep and back to my Drill like I want it to.

Any ideas on how to do an "add another" and get it to call my controller, save drillstep, and then redisplay the New page?

Thanks

in yur post activity. Example:

def recieved_params_for_drill
   begin
     @drill = Drill.create(params_for_drill)
     redirect_to  (YOUR ROUTE IN CONTROLLER FOR NEW ACTION)
   rescue => e
     puts e
   end
end

redirect_to (YOUR ROUTE IN CONTROLLER FOR NEW ACTION) => YOUR CHECK IN CONSOLE with rake route command and get a rout for new drill
