Hi, I really want to know if it is possible to assign counter to the .rhtml page so that if counter=1, when the submit button is clicked, I will do the save/create action. If counter >= 2, when the submit button is clicked, I will do the update action.

You could accomplish this with the use of sessions. I''m really still
new to RoR. But basically with sessions enabled you can add code to
your page controller like:
def find_count
session[:count] ||= 0 // Looks to see if session[:count] has been
initialized, if not it will in this case set it to a value of 0.
session[:count += 1 // increment by 1. First visit will be
initialized to 1. Successive visits will increment as stated earlier,
by 1.
end
then in the view code do something a control structure check like
<% if session[:count] == 1 %>
<% form_for :model, :url => { :action => :save } do |form| %>
<%= render :partial => ''form'' %>
<%= submit_tag "Save" %>
<% end %>
<% elsif session[:count] > 1 %>
<% form_for :model, :url => { :action => :edit } do |form| %>
<%= render :partial => ''form'' %>
<%= submit_tag "Edit" %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
Where the above render code will look for a file called _form.rhtml in
the same folder and render the contents of that file, in this case it
should contain the fields for your model.

But what should i do to enable the user to update that data that was saved previously ? I thought of using the find current id to edit the data. But it will not be practical as the current id of the data might not be that particular i want to edit.Can someone tell me what should i do?

Like when ever I enter the main page a new session is created and when i click a button/link, the session will be ended.
