Form posts twice - once as post and again as get. Can some one help?
Hi all, I am having a very strange problem. I have a form with a bunch of fields for a db query of people. The person model has_many sub models such as addresses, skills etc. The :search action uses :include to eager load the data from various other tables which :belong_to people. The results page is also a form where the user can select check boxes to the select persons from the list and then save the set. The problem: The form is submitted and the query processed and the results page rendered. tail -f log shows.. First post: Processing PersonSearchController#search (for 127.0.0.1 at 2007-02-20 13:49:28) [POST] Parameters: {"person_search"=>{"city"=>"", "skill_id_3"=>"", "skill_search"=>"1",...etc etc .....normal processing happens here till.... Rendered person_search/_results (0.00915) Rendered layouts/_footer (0.00027) Completed in 15.63002 (0 reqs/sec) | Rendering: 0.25152 (1%) | DB: 0.02095 (0%) | 200 OK [http://localhost/person_search/search] The strange thing is that my breakpoint in the search action hits again immediately. And I get a second post which actually is a get. Processing PersonSearchController#search (for 127.0.0.1 at 2007-02-20 13:49:44) [GET] Session ID: 30519ded2f3bfa275e4cb7a2c1e67edc Parameters: {"action"=>"search", "controller"=>"person_search"} There are no form params this time. This causes (500 Internal Error) Relevant info: A. Both the first form and the results page with the form have auto_complete fields which work fine and actually use a dedicated auto_completion_controller. B. I am using a form_for builder on the first form though there is no corresponding model. Has any one seen this behaviour? Could using a form_for for a non_model form cause this? Any help will be greatly appreciated. -bakki PS: I am in the process of changing over to a plain old form_tag. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
