1st question:

I'm using Rails 2.0.2 and incorporating 
will_paginate   into my first app. I borrowed the code at http://github.com/mislav/will_paginate/wikis/simple-search to display a search form:

<% form_tag request.path, :method => 'get' do -%>
  <% content_tag :label do %>
    Search term:
    <%= text_field_tag :search, params[:search] %>
  <% end %>
<% end %>

but it has no 'Search' button, so I added a  submit_tag to produce it:

<% form_tag request.path, :method => 'get' do -%>
  <% content_tag :label do %>
    Search term:
    <%= text_field_tag :search, params[:search] %>
  <% end %>
  <% submit_tag 'Search' %>
<% end %>

but didn't get one:

<form action=""
method="get">  <label>
    Search term:
    <input id="search"
name="search" type="text" />
  </label>
  
</form>

I suspect the blank line is where it hiccuped and didn't spit it out. What am I doing wrong?


2nd question:

What does the  '
-%>'  tag in the first line do that '%>' doesn't?

Thanks,
Scott
