I have the file upload working, I have to place it outside my main
form.
Is there a way so I can have somewhere other than outside my form?
This below is all after the submit button:
<div id="file"> <%= render :partial =>
''/rsl/sitelist'', :locals =>
{ :files => @files } %> </div>
<iframe name="upload_file" id="upload_file"
style="width:1px;height:
1px;border:0px"></iframe>
<% form_for :file, :url => file_upload_path(:format =>
''js''), :html =>
{ :multipart => true, :target => ''upload_file'' } do
%>
<b>File:</b>
<%= file_field_tag :upload %>
<%= hidden_field_tag ''rfi'', @rfi.id %>
<%= submit_tag ''Upload File'' %>
<% end %>
anyone?

why do you need it outside the main form? is the main form also going to be there on that page? you might want to check out form_tag http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormTagHelper.html#M001729 good luck!

Well the file upload was not working because it is a form inside a form.

Can you be more descriptive?
If the file is related to the model who''s form is on the page, then the
file
can and should be a part of the form for that model.
If the file is unrelated to the model who''s form is in the page and/or
you
want to include a separate form for the file upload, then you can use
something like
<% form_tag :file, :url => file_upload_path(:format =>
''js''), :html =>
{ :multipart => true, :target => ''upload_file'' } do
%>
<b>File:</b>
<%= file_field_tag :upload %>
<%= hidden_field_tag ''rfi'', @rfi.id %>
<%= submit_tag ''UploadFile'' %>
<% end %>
... which is just the code u pasted with form_tag instead of form_for. you
should read the API to understand the difference.

I do know the difference but when I move the code into the main form it tries to submit the whole form.

You can use either form_for or form_tag for the file. In either case, the main form should close before you start the one for the file.

Well all file uploads from what I have seen are within the main form not below the submit button. I guess I will just use a modal box to do the uploads.

I have a Paperclip file upload going inside my model''s form, but not in a form for itself. I was approaching this as a form issue. Anyway, you should try Paperclip if it seems like it might help you. Its really extremely easy file uploads. www.thoughtbot.com/projects/paperclip good luck! 2009/8/11 Chris Habgood <chabgood-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>> > Well all file uploads from what I have seen are within the main form not below the submit button.
