Apology accepted, but ultimately didn't this become an issue of 'my
coding process is better than your coding process'?
Anyway, playing around with it, I got it to work, so in the hope that
months from now, someone will come across the same issue, here is the
working answer. It was simple, and for some reason I thought I had
tried it already and clearly hadn't, but you actually do seperate each
iteration into a seperate form.
<% @items.each do |item| %>
<% form_for :lineitems, :url => {:action => 'create', :id=>
@invoice.id} do |f|-%>
<%=item.itemname %> <%= f.hidden_field :item_id, :value=>item.id %>
<%= f.text_field :quantity %>
<%= f.text_field :price, :value => item.sellprice %>
<%= f.submit 'Add Item' %> <br/>
<% end %>
<% end %>
Does what I need it to do, though if this can be done as one form, I'd
be interested to see the code :-)
