Similar (but different) to another thread called ''accessing post
array'',
I have some records that I need sent via an array but I don''t want to
use a text field but rather a hidden field because I don''t want them
tampered with.
Simplifying my form quite a bit...
<% form_for :supptrans, @supptrans, :url => { :action =>
"print_checks" } do |form| %>
<table cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3"
border="0" width="100%">
...
<tbody>
...
<tr valign="top" class="ListLine<%= odd_or_even
%>">
<td><%=h (check_due.supplier.suppname) %></td>
<td><%=h (check_due.suppreference) %></td>
<%= form.hidden_field :paid_invoices, {:value => check_due.id} %>
<%= text_field ''check_number'',
''check_number'', :size => ''8'' %>
<%= submit_tag ''Print Checks'' %>
<% end %>
where I need the form to submit the starting check number but I also
need the check_due.id in an array so I know which checks are going to be
printed.
this
<%= form.hidden_field :paid_invoices, {:value => check_due.id} %>
is only the latest attempt but I have tried many things including...
<%= hidden_field :paid_invoices, "paid_invoices[]", {:value =>
check_due.id} %>
but none of them will give me an array of ''paid_invoices'' that
I will be
able to parse later similar to
<%= check_box_tag ''paid_invoices'',
''paid_invoices[]'', false %>
would give me
Is there a way to popular an array of ''hidden_field'' elements
for
posting?
