Hello all, First let me say im a n00b. Im coming into the OOP world from the design world. So far so good. With great resources like this, youre all making my life less painfull. Question - The current project im involved in is in 1.2.3 (not by my choice) Basically i have a form partial that i want to be able to route the information to either create or update, but do this like rails 2 would do. 1 form, 1 submit button, and have it be smart enough to know what to do. this is my form code <% form_for :styles, :url => styles_url(:id => current_client.id) do | f| %> <%= render :partial => "styles/form", :locals => {:f => f} %> <%= button :action => :submit, :label => ''Save Styles'', :class => ''blue'' %> i have a map.resources :styles in my routes My Styles Controller def create @client = Client.find(params[:id]) @styles = Styles.new(params[:styles]) if @styles.save flash[:notice] = ''Your custom styles have been created.'' redirect_to :controller => "client", :action => ''edit'', :id => @client.id else render :back end end def edit @styles = Styles.find(params[:id]) end def update @client = Client.find(params[:id]) @styles = Styles.find_by_client_id(@client.id) if @styles.update_attributes(params[:styles]) flash[:notice] = ''Your custom styles have been updated.'' redirect_to :controller => "client", :action => ''edit'', :id => @client.id else render :back end end any help would be great.. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I can''t tell from your code, but if your partial is using a variable like @styles, then actually you could just look at @styles.new_record? to find out if it''s new (i.e. use :post) or old (i.e. use :put). That''s actually what the 2.0 code does internally. Hope this helps?
