Rails - Jul 2008 - form causing error => "Only post requests are allowed"???

Why does the form give the error "Only post requests are allowed."
when submitted to my action? I know the form is supposed to be a post.
the rake routes looks ok. some reason there is a
"_method"=>"put" in
the reques parameters, would this cause it? how do i change the form
code to prevent this?

## Request
## Parameters:
{"commit"=>"Save",
 "_method"=>"put",
 "authenticity_token"=>"291f0f51779490f481edec3fef506b14a2797263",
 "address"=>{"address"=>"123 some street, boston,
ma"}}

## rake routes
verify_edit_club_address
POST
/clubs/:club_id/addresses/:id/verify_edit
{:controller=>"addresses", :action=>"verify_edit"}

## form.html.erb
<% form_for([@club, @address], :url =>
verify_edit_club_address_path(@club, @address)) do |f| -%>
  <p>
    <b>Address</b><br />
    <%= f.text_area :address %>
  </p>
  <p>
    <%= f.submit "Save" %>
  </p>
<% end -%>

## html of generated form
<form action="/clubs/1/addresses/6/verify_edit"
class="edit_address"
id="edit_address_6" method="post">

This way, Rails should be able to find out the right method by itself.
It depends on the state of @address.
If it''s generated with
@address = Adress.new()
and not saved, it''ll generate a put, otherwise if it''s based
on an
record in the db, (eg Address.find(...)) it''ll be a post

But you can change the form method easy enough if necessary:

<% form_for([@club, @address], :url =>
verify_edit_club_address_path(@club, @address), :method => :post) do |
f| -%>
