(private aside to Frederick Cheung):

I''ve been reading through forums all day trying to fine tune a rails
app I am building and you just keep popping up in "answer" to politely
posted questions.  You never have anything useful to add, but you are
quick to criticize.  You never seem to help anyone, but you seem ready
to complain.  Why don''t you get a different hobby, or find something
useful to add, or at least be quiet?   Failing those, please consider
dropping dead.

And by the way, once someone pays for a book, they certainly do have
the rights to use the contents, especially when they credit it as the
source, very especially when they do so in the way Daniel did.  "Agile
Web Development with Rails 2ed" by David Thomas.  The author of the
book surely realizes that people who are online trying to use it are
helping promote it.  I bought the thing specifically because it was
mentioned in here so often.  It is a great book.

****************

Everyone else ,
If someone can answer the simple question in Daniel Franca''s original
post (above), I and several others who are trying to learn Rails would
deeply appreciate it.  The documentation for rails form helpers
stinks; forum help is the often only hope to try and make sense out of
this.  The book helps, but forum support makes the book ten times as
valuable.
