I know in Rails 2.3.5 there's an easier way to do this, but I cheated a
bit an used attribute_fu because of this cool helper method.
<% form_for :analysis, @analysis, :url => analysis_path, :html => {
:multipart => true } do |analysis_form| %>
<%= analysis_form.render_associated_form(@analysis.photos, :new => 4) %>
<%= analysis_form.submit('Submit') %>
Then you just add a partial called _photo.html.erb inside your analysis
view folder, and throw in
<%= analysis_form.label(:image) %>
<%= analysis_form.file_field(:image) %>
In your model you would put
class Analysis < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :photos, :attributes => true
end
Hope that helps.
