Hi all,
What is the correct syntax to add an id attribute to a form tag with the
"form_tag" helper?
I''ve tried
start_form_tag({:controller => ''houses'', :action =>
''find''}, {:method =>
:get, :id => ''search''})
start_form_tag({:controller => ''houses'', :action =>
''find''}, :method =>
:get, :id => ''search'')
And other variations, but so far it doesn''t give the form the
attribute.
Can it be done?
Thanks,
Jeff Coleman

Why GET and not POST?

Why GET and not POST?Thanks, Chris. I was making a silly mistake--when I checked in my code, I was looking at the wrong form tag, and thinking the "id" tag wasn''t working. "Get"''s used here because it''s a non-destructive search operation and I want people to be able to bookmark or go back to the results page. Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
