similar to: submitting forms help

One submit should function exactly like the edit/update action from the initial scaffold while the other should do the same plus

Is it possible to use checkbox_tag outside a form? I''ve put it in a view and it renders but I get nothing back in the params hash. Is there a way to get the value?

I have the rails recipes book and i was going through the migrations recipe. Everything seemed to work except for the last part in trying to do a rake migrate with a migration file version 1 and the schema_info version set to 0.

for some reason the controller is parsing everything fine, but the return is a page instead of code execution. I have other ajax forms no listed that are also running fine on this same page. there are supposed to be 3 ajax events: onblur event that calls a function to submit - doesn''t work. There is a submit button at the end of the form - works there is a delete image that removed the
