I want to list every organization in a list (whether or not they have a count) with a text entry box that is the attendance_count for that organization. When I write I will just ignore the organizations that have a count of zero. The attendance_count is in the Attendees table so I can have a many_to_many relationship. I find all kinds of references for radio buttons and check boxes with check_box_tag and collection_check_box, but nothing for a number field. I assumed this was a SImple Form syntax issue and not just a Ruby/Rails syntax issue. As in Training Name: [ ] Training Date: [ ] Attendance: ------------------------- Organization #1: [ 0 ] Organization #2: [ 20 ] etc...
