Nicedit (rich text editor)

Hello, I''m trying to use Nicedit to improve my text_areas in some views
of my project.

I have installed jquery:
ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/aaronchi/jrails.git

nicEdit plugin:
ruby script/plugin install
git://github.com/sergio-fry/Simple-nicEdit.git

Add js in layout:
<%= javascript_include_tag ''nicEdit'',
''nicEditInit'' %>

Use it in form
<% form_for @item do |f| %>
  <%= f.rich_text_area :description %>
<% end %>

I have no results in my views and no javascript errors appears (checked
with firebug).

Could someone tell me if I have skipped something?

Could someone recommend me other plugin or gem for this purpose?

Thanks

That should be <%= form_for...

I would have thought that looking at the html of the page (View >
Source in the browser) it would have been clear that this was not
generating anything.

Re: Nicedit (rich text editor)

Thanks for your response.

If I use <%= form_for... It breaks
ActionView::TemplateError (compile error

I don''t understand, the error above shows form_for(@item) so this
would not appear to be the code generating the error.

How is it generating html if you get a compile error?

Re: Re: Nicedit (rich text editor)

I tried withe <%= form_form, as you told me, and I have compile error 
(and nothing else of course)

If I use <% form_form, I have no compilation error and the html code.

Thanks

But the example you showed that did not error has <%=  Quoting from

Re: Re: Re: Nicedit (rich text editor)

I pasted the wrong code... Sorry.

It should be:

View Code:

<%= form_for(@item) do |f| %>
  <%= f.error_messages %>
  <p><%= f.label :title %><br /><%= f.text_field :title
%></p>
  <p><%= f.label :description %><br /><%= f.rich_text_area
:description
%></p>
  <p><%= f.submit ''Create'' %></p>

It *must* be <%= form_for   otherwise it will not work.  If you cannot
get this to compile then that is the problem to find the solution to
first.

Did you find that <%= form_for is now working for you?

Ok, I didn''t know what you were meaning... :-)
> Did you find that <%= form_for is now working for you?
No, I have no idea.

All my forms in edit and new views are <% form_for ...

Should be <%= form_form inside <% form_for ?

I posted the compilation error and the html code I have with <% form_for 
in previous messages. If is there something more I could show, please 
tell me. I''m interesting to know why it didn''t work.

Thanks a lot!

I don''t understand what you mean by form_for *inside* form_for.  Are
you using nested forms?

However I now find myself very confused.  I have just done some
experiments and it seems that the = is not necessary.  I am
particularly confused as in the last few weeks there have been at
least two occasions on which posters here have had problems which were
fixed by using <%=.  But as I said I have just tried myself and <%
form_for seems to work perfectly ok.  I do not understand this as I
thought erb only included the result of the expression in the html if
the = was present.  Can someone with more knowledge of this comment
please?

Is form_form actually what you''re typing?  It should be form_for .

Are

<% form_for(@item) do |f| %>

No, nested forms are not allowed in html.  You can have multiple
submit buttons in one form though.
