similar to: form_for - Child object - how to set parent id

With the help of several heroes here yesterday I beat my way into a working solution to adding comments to one or more models in my application using acts_as_comentable. Great plugin, but my implementation is lame. I need enlightenment. I have users who log in. For several views I want to let them add comments. Enter act_as_commentable which does just this -- it''s polymorphic, so you

Warning: I am as green as #00FF00 with rails :-) I have an rhtml view that shows a survey: /views/survey/show.rhtml. I have a Survey model, helper and controller. I''m using the acts_as_commentable plugin to collect comments, and trying to save user comments from users who have taken a survey (don''t ask -- it''s just a test). To save the comment, I need the id of the

Hello Folks, I am starting out with RoR and just browsed through Dave''s book ? couldn''t stop reading. I started building a prototype to get better hands on experience and I have run into two simple issues that I am hoping will be a quick answer for some of you experts out there. *Issue 1:* >From within a "companies" controller and list_companies.rhtml view

I have a ''new'' page with a submit for creating stories. On the ''show'' page the submit allows a user to enter comments. I now want a ''edit'' page for the stories with another submit for updates. I have used the ''create'' and ''update'' methods in the stories_controller on the ''new'' and

I want to know the standard/easiest way to add items to a parent? Example: comment added to post I would like this to happen in the ?show? view of post using a form that is shown when the user clicks the ?add new? button/link. I would also like validation on the child form with the validation errors appearing in the post show? view. Two problems are presented: 1) When the user clicks the

I have a simple form , with a file field = form_for (Clip.new), :html => {:multipart => true} , :remote => true , do |f| = f.hidden_field :user_id, {:value => current_user.id} = f.text_field :name = f.text_area :description = f.file_field :image = f.submit I18n.t(:add) generating the html code <form accept-charset="UTF-8"

Seems the only issues I ever have with Rails are these bizarre fiddly little things that make no sense. Can''t for the life of me understand why I''m getting undefined method on form_for in a view? And it''s actually part of the acts_as_authenticated plugin that''s doing it. But how can it not know about form_for? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, I would like to know is there is a way to avoid poluting the views with tons of <% %> ? Like this <%= start_form_tag() %> <%= text_field_tag(''category[title]'', category.title, {:size => 20, :maxlength => 128}) %> <% if not category.parent_id.nil? %> <%= select("category", "parent_id", Category.find(:all,

I''m playing around with Markaby and I decided to write a little blog app. I''m running into issues with forms however. If I use form_for the output of the form gets swallowed. For example: form_for :article, @article do |f| f.text_field :title f.check_box :published f.text_area :description f.text_field :pub_date f.text_area :content end gets rendered as an empty form

how can i give name attributes for form_for(), so it will give an output like <form name="f">. it is because that i need to access the form name for javascript manipulation. as far as i know, name can only used in form_tag(), but i currently have more than 50 forms that built using form_for(). the structure is like this: <% form_for symbol, item, :url => { :action

Hello all, I''m getting this weird ''<input name value=''2'' type=''hidden'' />'' text printed out in my form. See attached image. I''ve spent too much time trying to figure it out already and it''s not going to stop me from moving on for now. As you can see it''s still very early on. I''m using

How does one generate a form within a view using javascript? Specifically, assume views/premise/new.html.erb looks like this: <%= form_for(Premise.new) do |f| %> <%= f.hidden_field :full_address, :value => $FULL_ADDRESS %> <%= f.hidden_field :geocoding, :value => $GEOCODING %> <%= f.submit :value => "use this address" %> <%= f.label

Hi, I have a resource map like this: map.resources :users do |user| user.resource :sreg10record end So a User is supposed to have (at most) one Sreg10record. The problem is in the views. I tried following this tutorial: http://www.akitaonrails.com/2007/12/12/rolling-with-rails-2-0-the-first-full-tutorial which proposes something like: <% form_for( [@user, @sreg10record] ) do |f|

I have a controller method called update_all that grabs parameters for about 30 form fields and saves them to the database. My current code looks to see if there is a string in params[] for each form field (two fields for each SelfEvaluationItem) and saves the updated self_evaluation_answer if a string is available. Since this is iterated code, I am almost certain that this generates 30 or so

Hi guys, I''m having trouble getting named routes and form_for to play nicely in quite the way I would expect.

I''m getting an error in the partial when i try <% form_for :name do |form| %> <%= render_partial "#{@current_stage}" %> <% end %> So I assume that form_for does not have scope in the partial? If that is the case what are my solutions... Do I have to stick a <% form_for in every partial, or do i just change all my inputs back to text_field
