I meant that you should check that the html for the form is correct html for a form with a submit button. I think you may find that there is a </form> where you do not expect it, (separate from the one you have manually added). Looking at your code you have got the use of form_tag wrong. Unfortunately you have snipped your original code so it is difficult to insert the corrections. Have another look at the docs for form_tag, you will see there should be a 'do' there and there is no need to add the </form> yourself. > >> I think it should be :action = 'to' rather than :to > > It didn't affect anything, I beleive they mean the same thing. They don't mean the same thing, though sometimes they are interchangeable. I am not sure in this case, again check the html to see if it is correct.
