akinsgre / form_for.rb

Created December 8, 2011 14:29

Problems with Rails form_for tag

	#This form "should" create a new contact and a new group_contact record. What I really
	# want to do is to add an existing contact to a group. But can't figure out
	# how to build a form_for that will let me do that.
	#
	# If I were creating my own form, I'd just put the group_id in a hidden field and let
	# the user pick a contact from a select. Then I'd post to a groups_controller
	# to add the contact to group.contacts.
	#
	# I'm just not seeing how to do that in a form_for
	#
