Hello,
I have a form which contains a table that users fill in. The table data
will not be going into the form''s own object, but into a series of
objects (one per row) via a has_man :through relationship.
I can''t figure out how to supply field names to the form helper methods
so that the proper params sub-hashes will be built. I''m currently
building the form fields manually, and this is what they look like:
<input id="inclusion_1_fee" name="inclusion[1][fee]"
size="4"
type="text"/>
<input id="inclusion_2_fee" name="inclusion[2][fee]"
size="4"
type="text"/>
<input id="inclusion_3_fee" name="inclusion[3][fee]"
size="4"
type="text"/>
Would someone please tell me how I can generate these input tags using a
form helper method?
Thanks,
Avram

To anyone who cares, I found the answer here: http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?pid=3714 The short version is that fields_for somehow does this automagically. I don''t really understand how it works, it appears to involve what I consider a trick, whereby you make sure you have an instance variable around who''s name matches the value you supply to fields_for, and then it inserts that object''s .id attribute into the []. I don''t really know, I''m just guessing from looking at the code. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
