I have a model called comment which has the typical stuff like
belongs_to :post, author, email, body and a posts controller with the
method add_comment.
On the views/posts/show.html.erb I have:
<% form_for @comment, :url => {:action => :add_comment} do |f| %>
<div>Name: <%= f.text_field :author%></div>
<div>Email: <%= f.text_field :email%></div>
<div><%= f.text_area :body%></div>
<div><%= f.submit ''submit'' %></div>
<% end %>
How do I wire it up so that when I''m on localhost:3000/posts/24/ and
hit the submit button, it will either:
A) Add a new comment with the right post_id
B) Redirect back to localhost:3000/posts/24/ with an error message if
all required fields are not filled out.

Look into making comments a nested resource of your posts. This will keep your comments in the context of a post. Your route would look something like: /posts/24/comments Using a POST on that URI would call your comments_controller create action.

Wow thanks for the quick response. I''ve tried the nested routes route. (map.resources :posts, :has_many => :comments) I need /posts/24/comments to look exactly the same as /posts/24, except with error messages for validating the comment fields. However, I get this weird artifact where the comment I filled out partially shows up on /posts/24/comments. Also, comments only needs add and delete so I figured I should make it a model without a controller and just have posts_controller do the add and admin_controller do the delete. Is there a way to achieve this? On Jul 31, 11:09 am, Robert Walker <r0b3rt4...-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> Look into making comments a nested resource of your posts.
