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

Hi, I''m new to ruby and rails. I just created a simple update page and the update works fine if all form fields are filled in. However there is one field that should never be allowed to be blank.

Hi, It seems there must be a better way to do this than what I am currently doing. I have a simple app that collects a users thoughts along with their email address and their first an last name.
