Hey Everyone: I have been having some issues in certain projects with the extra hidden_field that form.check_box automatically adds to check_box tags, so I wrote a patch to allow people to exclude this extra tag. I was looking for some feedback on this before I wrote up docs, etc. Basically the "gotcha" mentioned in the rails docs doesn't have a solution for:
"Unfortunately that workaround does not work when the check box goes within an array-like parameter" I altered the ActionView::Helpers::InstanceTag "to_check_box_tag" method to look as follows: http://gist.github.com/37276 So you could pass: <%= f.check_box :public, {:ignore_hidden_field => true}%> or if you don't want to ignore it, like most people won't, the default will be to include it. This is my first patch, etc. so be gentle.
