Railsers: As usual for a product written very rapidly, most of its documentation assumes some other documentation told you something critical. For example, the file form_helper.rb tempts me with this documentation: # <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" }, :builder => LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %> That''s beautiful. Now what do I

Is there a trick to using control_for in forms? I''ve been trying to make a simple form with a couple of text fields and I keep getting a unknown method error. Thanks!

I am wondering why is in creating text fields with form_helper used value_before_type_cast instead of attribute value for field value?

Hi everyone, I am creating a typical client management app for a small office. The only twist is that I want the ''admin'' to be able to add custom form fields into the client forms. Is there anything out there that will let me create custom fields on the fly? I''d like to see how they did it. Or if anyone has any tips as to how I should design this, please go
