Hi there, I can't seem to get form_for to work correctly with the URL I'm providing for a set of nested resources. Here's what I'm doing in routes.rb:
resources :threads do resources :messages end And then I've got the following form that I'm building as part of /threads/1/messages/1/edit. Both @thread and @message are set by the controller .... <%= form_for @thread, :as => :thread, :url => thread_messages_path(@thread, @message) do |f| %> <%= fields_for :message do |m| %> ..... <% end %> <%= submit_tag "Update Message" %> <% end %> This is producing the following HTML: <form action="/threads/1/messages.1" class="thread_edit" id="thread_edit" method="post"><div style="margin:0;padding:0;display:inline"><input name="_method" type="hidden" value="put" /> Notice that while the HTTP method is correctly PUT, the form action ends in .1 instead of /1, which is confusing the router. Curiously, the 'new' case seems to be getting properly constructed, though I had to manually specify the :method to properly generate the URL: <%= form_for @thread, :as => :thread, :url => thread_messages_path, :html => {:method => :post} do |f| %> <%= fields_for :message do |m| %> ... <% end %> <%= submit_tag "Create Reply" %> <% end %> Am I doing something obviously wrong or is this a deficiency in the path convenience methods? Note that I am using ":as =>" all over the place because the name of my model object (which is actually "Axthread") does not cleanly map to a named route, and using "thread" as a model name is not an option. -Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
