i corrected the "if params[:exp] == ''1''". but i want to save the input got from the radio button to an variable so that i can compare it with another string and with the result of the comparison i need to increment a count variable SO so i thought i ve no other way other than global variable to use it across views and controllers.But even when i tried the $ way ,@@ way @ way , when I assign params[:exp] to it it is not getting displayed.Kindly suggest me a alternative solution. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I''d recommend you read up on Rails forms, including the `radio_button` method. 2) Are you certain that the submit action is saving the input to some persistent storage? -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ hassan.schroeder-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org http://about.me/hassanschroeder twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Thank for ur reply i m not sure about how to write the form for this radio_button. if i use the form_for @abc where abc is the database i m not able to read input with params[:]. i did use the form as <%= form_for(@abc) do |f| %> <tr><%=f.radio_button:e,@abc.a%> <%=f.label:rating_1,@abc.a%></tr> <tr><%=f.radio_button:e,@abc.b%> <%=f.label:rating_1,@abc.b%></tr> <tr><%=f.radio_button:e,@abc.c%> <%=f.label:rating_1,@abc.c%></tr> <%=f.radio_button:e,@abc.d%> <%=f.label:rating_1,@abc.d%> where the answer selected would get updated to the database. as you said i don want to update it in the database . i need to modify this form to a way where i need to read the value of the selection and inmcrement the counter on per user basis. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I totally don''t understand that. Is the thing represented by ''abc'' an object or an attribute of an object? And if an object, you''re saying you don''t want it to be an ActiveRecord- derived object? A more realistic example would help me, at least :-) Also, the markup above isn''t remotely valid, so you may want to fix that long the way. -- Hassan Schroeder ------------------------ hassan.schroeder-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org http://about.me/hassanschroeder twitter: @hassan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
