Rails - Jul 2007 - form_for - over riding the controller that generates the form

Hello,

I am trying to install my login and search forms as default parts of
the layout.  This is the code I am using:

<% form_for :user, :url => {:action =>
''authenticate''} do |f| %>
	<p>Username:<br /><%= f.text_field :username, :size => 30
%></p>
	<p>Password:<br /><%= f.password_field :password, :size => 30
%></p>
	<%= submit_tag ''Login'' %>
<% end %>

This is the form that is created:

	<form action="/pages/authenticate" method="post">
		<p>
			LOGIN <input id="user_username" name="user[username]"
size="10"
type="text" />
			PASSWORD <input id="user_password"
name="user[password]" size="10"
type="password" />
			<input name="commit" type="submit"
value="Login" />
		</p>
	</form>

The form action is referring to the pages controller.  I need it to
refer to the accounts controller, which the same code does after
whenever permissions are not granted.  How can I tell form_for which
specific controller to reference?

Thanks!

The answer turns out to be quite simple:

form_for :user, :url => {:action => ''authenticate'',
:controller =>
''account'' }

<% form_for :user, :url => {:action =>
''authenticate'', :controller =>
''account'' } do |f| %>
        <p>Username:<br /><%= f.text_field :username, :size =>
30 %></
p>
        <p>Password:<br /><%= f.password_field :password, :size
=> 30
%></p>
        <%= submit_tag ''Login'' %>
<% end %>
