I am following the following example in the API for form helper
overrides:
module UsersHelper
# display the "is_admin" field as a checkbox instead of a dropdown
def user_is_admin_form_column(record, options)
check_box :record, :is_admin, options
end
------------------------------------------------
My model looks like this:
class EntityMonitor < ActiveRecord::Base
end
Helper looks like this:
module EntityMonitorsHelper
def entitymonitor_monitor_name_form_column(record, options)
@monitors = EntityMonitor.find(:all, :select => 'distinct
monitor_name', :order => 'monitor_name')
@monitors.collect! {|monitor|
monitor.monitor_name}
select_tag("monitor_name", options_for_select(@monitors))
end
end
This code does not change the form. However, when I change the method
name to monitor_name_form_column(record, options), the form changes,
but it also overrides the form layout for other models with the same
column name (i.e., monitor_name). I've tried pluralizing, putting an
underscore between entity and monitor, tried capitalizing them. Can't
figure this one out.
Anyone have any advice here?
Thanks a lot.
Jay
