## `ic-global-include` - The Global Include Attribute

### Summary

The `ic-global-include` attribute tells Intercooler to include additional parameters in all requests that it makes to the server, allowing you to pass up additional UI information to the server.

### Syntax

The value of the `ic-global-include` attribute can either be a CSS/JQuery element selector of elements to include in the request or a JSON object of name/value pairs to include. If it is a JSON object, it must satisfy the jQuery parseJSON() requirements.

This attribute may be placed on any element in the document and will be included with all intercooler requests.

### Dependencies

`ic-global-include` has no effect on dependencies.

### Example

In this example, the input specifies it should be included on all requests to the server.

      <div ic-src="/update">Please Enter A Name...</div>

      <input id="name" name="name" ic-global-include="#name"/>

      <button ic-post-to="/update">Upload Name</button>

Note that the response to the button click is the content to swap in for the div, not the button.

Please Enter A Name...
