similar to: check_box_tag always checked

Hello all. Am I going totally nuts here and just want to check (Natch!) something. A normal check_box has two value posssibilities. One for checked and one for unchecked, the value gets submitted with a form. The check_box_tag on the other hand, has a checked_value (Called just ''value'') and for the unchecked value...nothing, zip, nada. This means that if you submit a form with

All, I''m populating a view with checkboxes in a list. I want to be able to assign to my has_many relationship using the post values of these checkboxes. Essentially, I want to populate the relationship table which will create the correct join values in my model. Here is my check_box_tag code: <%= check_box_tag("@current_job[target_list_ids][]",

I''ve tried this (in a new method/template -- so @type doesn''t actually exist yet): check_box ''type'', ''notify_on_create'', {:checked=>''true''} But :checked seems to get swallowed.

Hi, I would like to put a checkbox on a form where the input field is a variable rather than a field in a model.

I admit I am stuck. I am converting a legacy php site to ROR. The old site uses MD5, a security flaw waiting to happen. I upgraded to AAA and am adding code in the session_controller.rb file to see if crypted_password is blank. If it is, crypt and check the password against the old md5 version and write it in the new crypted_password field. Here is my code add on before the logged_in?: def

Hello, I have in my application a private public URL. For those who know Flickr, it is sorta like the URL you give to your friend for them to access your photos. Usually the URL looks like this: http://www.domain.com/url/khjuytf678ysdfksdgihsd Where "khjuytf678ysdfksdgihsd" is an encoded path. Let say I want to have a public-private page for:

I have a User ActiveRecord model that has email and password properties. I want to build a login for that has a "remember me" option. My view looks like this: <% @page_title = "Login" -%> <%= error_messages_for ''user'' %> <%= form_tag %> <table> <tr> <td align="right" width="1%"

I have a collection of check_box_tags that look like the following: <% for item in @items %> <%= check_box_tag "item[item_ids][]", item.id, false, {:onchange => remote_function(:url => update_items_path, :with => "''items='' + escape(value) "} %> <%= item.name %> <% end %> My question is, how do I send all of the current

Okay so I have a typical search page where a keyword is entered and results are retrieved that match the keyword. What I want to do now is have checkboxes to search for results in specific areas (my site is a big events calendar with "streams" and "audiences") I want to use the checkboxes to look for results in ''streams'', ''audiences'', or

What have I missed I have a .rhtml with the sandard form parameters <%= image_submit_tag("excel.gif", :alt => "Download List to Excel", :border => 0, :name => ''render_action'', :value => ''excel'' ) %> Which genenerates I believe a valid html fragment for a submit button. <input alt="Download List to Excel"

Basically what I''m trying to do is create a way for users to enter "keywords" that will then be searchable. I.e., when a user creates a new Item, there is also a keywords field in the database that is a string like "purple triangle free" -- but all the user sees when they are creating the keywords is a series of checkboxes like: __blue __red __purple __circle

On my registration form I have a checkbox for a waiver. In the model I have the statement: validates_acceptance_of :waiver, :on => :create, :message => "must be accepted" In the view: <%= check_box_tag("waiver") %> <%= error_message_on "user", "waiver", "Waiver "%> For some reason validate is accepting everything when the

I''ve got a question on the use of check_box. *** This is working but there just has to be a better way: RHTML: <% for book in @books do %> <tr> <td><%=book.label%></td> <td> <%checked = book.subscribed ? ''checked'': ''nope''%> <%=check_box("book" + book.id.to_s,

Hi, This is my second question on the poor performance of webrick (previously I had a problem with Ajax). I have a somewhat simple Rails application which works just fine, but when I come back to work the next day, the server responds with error 500.
