[Rails] Re: Having some trouble with loop in a form

Your submit button is within the @items.each loop, hence I see that for each row there is an 'Add Item' button.There should be only 1 submit button in the end (if you want to submit the entire form) Thanks & Regards, Dhruva Sagar. Joan Crawford

I guess you should not use f.submit for "Add item", instead you should use a link and a corresponding action which will add an item and render lineitem form again. Thanks, Abhinav -- अभिनव http://twitter.com/abhinav On Sun, Sep 6, 2009 at 10:36 AM, maximulus wrote: > > Hello, > > I'm clearly

Apology accepted, but ultimately didn't this become an issue of 'my coding process is better than your coding process'? Anyway, playing around with it, I got it to work, so in the hope that months from now, someone will come across the same issue, here is the working answer. It was simple, and fo

[Rails] Re: Having some trouble with loop in a form

Again, thanks for the replies. I never said I don't do it. But my issue doesn't work with any browser at the moment, and even if I eliminate all the td elements (or the entire table), the same problem persists. The problem is in the ruby code, not the markup html yet, which is why I elect to do it

[Rails] Re: Having some trouble with loop in a form

Hello, Thanks for all the replies. I've used this format before in .Net using a datagrid, but I'm tring to apply it to RoR. Fred, if the issue is repeated parameter in a single form, am I best off attempting to add 'fields_for' to the form, or is there a way to make every row iterate on multiple
