Here is the generated html: <input type="radio" value="true" name="user[gender]" id="user_gender_male"/> Rails is going nuts here, why is Rails generating the id "user_gender_male"??? That''s why everything is going wrong. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I think, the way you are using the :checked option may be wrong. Try with, :checked => true :checked => ''checked'' -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

If the current value of method is tag_value the radio button will be checked. Additional options on the input tag can be passed as a hash with options. Examples # Let''s say that @post.category returns "rails": radio_button("post", "category", "rails") # => <input type="radio" id="post_category" name="post[category]" value="rails" checked="checked" /> or just do :checked => ''checked'' yourself in the options. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
