You dont want to pass the whole f object( the form helper object), when you only need the AR instance to loop the object's validation errors. f has methods of its out like text_field , check_box, etc... you dont want to pass f to generate the error list when the instance of the AR is the one with has the method errors. In your example @user is the same as f.object so you could have done
<%= render 'shared/error_messages', :object=> @user %> This makes clear what is it that you are passing to the errors loop. AR instances have a method like this @user.errors so you can do @user.errors.each do on the other hand , f is a form helper object, that has methods like f.text_field f.text_area I hope this helps. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
