I often have to provide overrides for the default merb helpers. Seems like a pretty safe/common thing to do. Go ahead and create a delete_button method in ApplicationHelpers with something like this: http://gist.github.com/198623
It does kind of suck that merb doesn't allow overrides to the form element on delete_button. If you feel strongly about this, go ahead and create a merb.lighthouseapp.com ticket and we'll try to get it fixed for Merb 1.1 Thanks On Sep 30, 2009, at 5:23 PM, MarkMT wrote: > > I ran into an issue today with the way IE6 (uuuggghhh!) treats the > button created by merb's delete_button helper.
