For some strange reason I can''t get update_attributes to work. Any
reason why that might be?
here is my code:
controller:
def update
@user = User.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if @user.update_attributes(params[:user])
flash[:notice] = ''Your Information was successfully
updated.''
format.html { redirect_to(user_url(@user)) }
format.xml { head :ok }
else
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
format.xml { render :xml => @user.errors, :status =>
:unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
view:
<% form_for(:user, :url => user_url(@user), :html => { :method =>
:put
}) do |f| %>
<div class="optional">
<label for="city">First Name:</label>
<%= f.text_field :first_name, :class =>
''inputText'' %>
</div>
<div class="optional">
<label for="city">Last Name:</label>
<%= f.text_field :last_name, :class =>
''inputText'' %>
</div>
<p>
<%=submit_tag "Update"%>
</p>
<% end %>

I''m just curious whether one might spot something. Also, do you have validations in your models?

That''s only fair. It let''s those who do use the search features of the Internet to find solutions as well as problems and provides a bit of closure to everyone who''s tried to help (or just had to delete the email; yes, many use email rather than the forum). -Rob Rob Biedenharn http://agileconsultingllc.com Rob-xa9cJyRlE0mWcWVYNo9pwxS2lgjeYSpx@public.gmane.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
