similar to: label tag with errors?

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%"

Hi, I want to extend formbuilder to make it output a lable (I know about labeled_form_helper made by technoweenie), my own formating, and a couple of extra tags inside the form attribute. I was easily able to extend form_remote_to. But when I continue to adjust the way elements are handled I don''t know how to continue. I can''t find the method text_field thats should is

Does anyone know how to override the <div class="fieldWithErrors"> behaviour when a form field is incorrect? Thanks, Dan

Hi! The topic can be a bit misleading, because it may suggest that i want to change css style. What i''d like to change is that normally, when there''s an error, rails creates a div element with the fieldWithErrors class as the parent of the input. I''d like to change this behavior, so the input element itself will have this class added to its current classes and

this is kinda trivial but I''m anal and it bugs me :) whenever there''s a error in the form the error field is wrapped with <div class="fieldWithErrors"> </div> this throws my form''s styling off because it puts too much space b/t fields and worse makes the form as wide as possible. How do I fix this? I''ve tried div.fieldWithErrors {

I''ve run across something that I''m not sure how to fix. This is with MSIE, Firefox doesn''t seem to have the same problem. When rails displays form fields in error using the css element fieldWithErrors, and the form field is enclosed in a table data tag, the entire background of the table data element is set to red instead of just the border of the form element.

Hello, I am having trouble displaying a check box which must be checked but hasn''t been. I would like it to be highlighted as in a scaffolded view but the hidden check box field which is generated by the check_box helper is also highlighted, and the text next to it loses its styling. My code follows. Should I get cleverer with the CSS or write my own check_box helper which

Hi How do I supress the reporting of a field name in the full error message? I want the error to be associated with the field so that the .fieldWithErrors class is applied to the field but I don''t want it to add the field name to the actual error message. For example: errors.add("occurs_on", "The date can''t be today!") unless occurs_on != Date.today I

Hi all, is there a way to override the validation methods so as to avoid the div.fieldWithErrors divs from being created on the redisplayed form? Many thanks in advance, Nicky

H All, I have run into a very interesting issue. On one of my apps, after upgrading from 2.3 to 3.0, the form validation started to escape html. Normally what should happen when you submit a form and one of the fields fails validation that field would get surrounded with a <div class="fieldWithErrors"> and so on. That seems to be broken in my app and what I get is the correct html

Trying to install rails/fcgi/apache2. Following these instructions: http://xmlareas.com/ruby-rails-howto.html Using Fedora Core 4. I installed ruby and ruby-devel using apt-get. Everything under Adding FastCGI (optional) works fine up to the gem install fcgi part. Here is what happens: [root@paulbarry fcgi-2.4.0]# gem install fcgi -r -- -with-fcgi-lib=/usr/local/fcgi/lib

Hey guys, I''m trying to have a simple webform in my administration section to add a user. I have the text_fields for adding the user''s name, password, and password confirmation, but cannot seem to figure out the checkbox. I want it to be a single checkbox, that if clicked, will set the database column "access" to be "admin" and if its unchecked, set it to be

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

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. The normal way (with a model) would be: <%= check_box(''client'', ''accept'', {}, "1", "0") %> But since accept is a variable @accept and model client will not be there, how do I make a check box work? Regards, Paul

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,

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. I''ve also tried setting notify_on_create to true in the Type model, but that doesn''t work either. Any way to get the

I''ve got the following problem, I''ve created two check_boxes in my view. The user has to select one check_box, but isn''t allowed to seth both of them together on true. Now i am looking for functionality that can help me doing the folling: Scenario 1 CheckBox1 = True, The user sets CheckBox2 from False to True, now CheckBox1 should automatically become False.

Is there a way to get rid of the divs around an error field. These divs are causing me headaches. Any suggestions :-)?

One of the criticism I have heard about rails is that the documentation is bad. I must admit I have a hard time trying to follow it and I wonder if anyone can shed some light on it for me. For example, I am looking at the schema.rb file generated and I noticed this line: create_table "accounts", :force => true do |t| I thought to myself, what does :force => true mean? So I

Hello, I have the following: My Controller: def new . . @teammembers.each do |teammember| request = @request_thread.requests.build(:recipient_id => teammember.user_id, :full_name => ''Billy Bob T'') end My View: . . <%= f.fields_for :requests do |builder| %> <div class="field"> <%= builder.label
