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

I have a series of checkboxes in a form generated as follows: <% for user in @active_users %> <p><%= user.firstname + " " + user.surname%> <%= check_box ''assigned_tasks'', ''user_id'', {:index => user.id}, user.id, nil %></p> <% end %> I''d like to have one of them selected when user.id is equal to the

I''m using Rails 1.1.x and it looks like the check_box form helper expects me to provide and object and method so it can determine if the checkbox should be checked or not. I''m having a couple of issues with this. note: I''m using UserEngine and adding a HABTM so that: class User < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :foos end class foo <

I have a checkbox tag as follows: <%= f.check_box :receive_offers %> When I view source in the html, I see the value of the checkbox is "1", with the normal hidden field value of "0". However, after posting the form and saving to the database, the Mysql column, which is a TinyInt, is ALWAYS 0. I''ve tried it with true/false values instead, and no luck. Any

I''d report this on the rails trac site but it won''t let me open a new ticket. I figured this was important enough to bring this up now. I replaced the prototype version in Scriptaculous 1.6.4 with the version in 1.6.5 in a rails site I''m working on. I noticed though that even though I was clicking the checkbox to confirm the acceptance of a terms of service that I kept

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

I have a User model and an Address model. A user has_many addresses, and an address belongs_to a user. An address object for a user could be a billing, shipping or marketing address. The way I''m tracking this is via the user attributes: billing_adress_id, marketing_address_id and shipping_address_id in the user table, which holds the relevant address id. But in my form that allows a

Context: I have a GoodsReturn model with many ReturnedItem. For the new view, I create a new GoodsReturn with many new ReturnedItems from a sale (and its SoldItems).

Hello! I have this page where I list all users in a table. There is checkbox in every row. My User-model has a "checked"-attribute.

Hi all, After many days of struggling, I have a multi-model form with ajax elements more or less working, but I''m hitting a wall with a few bugs that I can''t figure out.
