I am trying to get this to work:
def do_button(event_type)
varname = event_type.name.underscore
humanname = event_type.new.event_name_string
form_for (@user, :url => "do_#{varname}_user_path(@user)") do |
form|
submit_tag "I got my #{humanname} today"
end
end
My view has this in it:
<li>
<% do_button(Mammogram) %>
</li>
But I keep getting this error in the log from the form_for line inside
the helper:
ActionView::TemplateError (undefined local variable or method
`_erbout'' for <ActionView::Base:0x357355c>) in users/
_mammogram.html.erb.
Can''t figure out what to do. Anyone?

form_for does not work in a helper. Use a partial instead.

Re: Embedding a full form in a helper
Hi. I have the same problem... As I''m still trying to find whats wrong I can only share some guesses: 1. The error is the same as when you do something like this in the view: <%= form_for(@user) do |f| %> (note the ''='') So my guess is that what happens is that the block treats all the code as it was inside <%= %>-tags and therefore breaking the "sub-block"... Please let me know if you find a solution to the problem...
