Problem with submit form
I have the general submit form with info like address, email, name,
etc.
However I seem to stumbled into a problem, everytime I access that
page, rails validates if the fields are empty or not. I have this
code ....
def new_user
# if pressed submit ....
@user = User.new(params[:user])
@user.some_bool_option = true
if @user.save
flash[:notice] = ''User was successfully created.''
redirect_to :action => ''list''
else
render :action => ''new_user''
end
end
What I would like to see if it''s possible to create the user instance
ONLY if the user pressed the submit tag. Is this even possible?

Is this even possible?The usual idiom would be: def new_user @user = User.new if request.post? @user.attributes = params[:user] if @user.save flash[:notice] = ''User was successfully created.'' redirect_to :action => ''list'' return end end end This makes a GET render with a blank form, while a POST will redirect if successful, or render with the user''s values carrying forward (so errors can be corrected). You can use error_messages_for(:user) in the view to show the errors. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thanks for the tip, but it does not work. After I input the data in the field and finally press the submit button, it clears ALL data and gives me the validate_presence_off errors. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
