So, did I get you right? Either I have to adapt PHP to Rails and change JQuery-File-Upload file upload action "server/php" to my file upload action
or I have to adapt PHP to Rails and add the ID of the example form (do you mean "form id="fileupload""? ) to my Rails form_for [1] method and then fold it in the JavaScript JQuery-Upload-File use to make the preview. [1] I have such kind of form_for <%= form_for Painting.new do |f| %> <%= f.label :image, "Upload paintings:" %> <%= f.file_field :image, multiple: true, name: "painting[image]" %> <% end %> and I have to add and ID to it, dont I? There are two ways to solve my problem, did I define them correctly?
