Hi there,
I''m going through this tutorial on Thinking Sphinx:
http://railscasts.com/episodes/120-thinking-sphinx
I''m really new to searches in rails; how do I get the search results to
display on a separate search result page?
I have a search form that appears on every page (in my
application.html.erb template) that looks like this:
<% form_for :recipes, :url => {:controller => "pages",
:action =>
"searchresults"} do |f| %>
<%= f.text_field :search %>
<%= submit_tag "Search" %>
<% end %>
This is a recipe search, but it doesn''t even work because :search
isn''t
a field in the recipes table. I just want to grab a params[:search] that
I can use in my controller.
Here''s what my pages_controller.rb looks like:
def searchresults
@recipes = Recipe.search params[:search], :page => params[:page],
:per_page => 10, :field_weights => {:title => 20}, :match_mode =>
:boolean
end
I have no problem with this code; I have a searchresults.html.erb that
matches up just fine. But params[:search] == nil, so that''s no good. :(
How should I construct my form?
Thanks!

I switched to a form_tag because I wasn''t querying the model. Here''s what I came up with: <% form_tag :action => ''searchresults'' do %> <%= text_field_tag :search %> <%= submit_tag "Search" %> <% end %> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
