My first proposal for how to fix this is simply to have script/generate scaffold return to doing <%= form(@product) %> instead of writing out the individual lines. Yes, it is kinda neat to have that, but the pain is not worth it. This affects page 98 of the book, but that should probably be rewritten using form_for instead anyway. And it also doesn't break any existing applications. It's just a new behavior for new runs of that generator. -- David Heinemeier Hansson http://www.loudthinking.com -- Broadcasting Brain http://www.basecamphq.com -- Online project management http://www.backpackit.com -- Personal information manager http://www.rubyonrails.com -- Web-application framework _______________________________________________ Rails-core mailing list Rails-core@lists.rubyonrails.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-core
