Hi,
I found a plugin on the web for a label helper and modified it to be
more like the rails core form elements behave (errors etc). I really
think this could be good to DRY forms especially with the new CRUD for
everything and likely more reliance on scaffolding. In my _form.rhtml
partial I can now write (abreviated)
<% form_for :category, @category,
:url => {:action=>'update'} do |f| %>
<%= f.label :name %></dt>
<%= f.text_field :name %></dd>
<%= f.label :description, 'The description' %></dt>
<%= f.text_area :description %></dd>
<% end %>
I'm not a rails wizard and don't feel like I could make a quality
patch. Can someone help or tell me what's wrong with my plugin?

Checkout the plugin
svn checkout

Thanks,

The plugin I found doesn't work with form_for and doesn't behave like
the other rails form_helpers. It appends an error string instead of
wrapping the element. I don't think that is as flexible
