I am sure this is a trivial problem for a rails guru! all I want to do is display an appropriately cheched check_box in a table, so: instead of <% for t in @patient.histories%> <tr> <td><%= t.ihd %></td> </tr> <%end%> I want something like: <% for t in @patient.histories%> <tr> <td><%=check_box_tag"diabetes", t.ihd %></td> </tr> <%end%> (hope that makes sense!) I have tried many permutations of the above and I can''t make it work!
