Phoenix hidden field with boolean value
Raw
gistfile1.txt
In phoenix when using a hidden field that should contain the value of a boolean with "<%= hidden_input f, :anonymous %>" it renders the following :
When true :
<input id="investment_anonymous" name="investment[anonymous]" type="hidden" value="value">
When false :
<input id="investment_anonymous" name="investment[anonymous]" type="hidden">
I would expect it to render the following :
When true :
<input id="investment_anonymous" name="investment[anonymous]" type="hidden" value="true">
When false :
<input id="investment_anonymous" name="investment[anonymous]" type="hidden" value="false">
Is this intentional or a bug ?
When it is intentional, then how should i handle this ?
