Hi,
You are welcome to comment on every aspect of this post -- not just the core
question at the bottom.

My application renders forms previously stored in the database. A Form
consists of Elements:

      t.references :form,
        :comment => 'What form we belong to.'
      t.decimal :ordering,
        :comment => 'In what order we should appear.'
      t.string :name,
        :null => false,
        :comment => 'Name.'
      t.string :title,
        :comment => 'Title.'
      t.string :ml_type,
        :null => false,
        :comment => 'Markup language type.'
      t.text :value,
        :null => false,
        :comment => 'Value.'
      t.text :flags, :comment => 'Flags.'

ml_type could be 'text', 'select' or any other HTML form type.

Models:

class Element < ActiveRecord::Base
  # Relationships
  belongs_to :form
  # Validations
  validates_numericality_of :ordering
  validates_presence_of :name
end

class Form < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :elements
end

An Element should never be orphaned (i.e. without a Form). So if you want to
add an Element, you go to

http://localhost:3000/forms/1

 .. which shows a Form's name with its Elements.

At the bottom of the Forms#show page I have a link 'New Element' which links
to:

http://localhost:3000/elements/new?form_id=1

Problem here is that if you click Create and validation doesn't pass, it
forgets about the form_id parameter.
How can I make it remember the form_id?

Best regards,
CmdJohn
