Yes, and no. You are posting a 'new' form to /players/new, or
/players/create?
In your 'new' template, you are probably using something that looks like...
form_for @player...
The form is getting an action to /players/new (new_player_path).
If you want to get a form action to /league/1/players/new, then you need to
tell your form that your resource is nested. We've done it in a couple of
different ways...
form_for [EMAIL PROTECTED], @player]
or
form_for @player, :url => new_league_player_path(@league)
Since you are not seeing an error, that means that you are routing to your
PlayersController via something other than the nested restful route
(/league/1/players/create). This could be because you also want 'players'
to be non-nested, or it could be because you have your default route still
active (':controller/:action/:id'). If it is the latter, I would suggest
turning off the default route, and see what happens (you'll learn a lot
about routing by doing so, even if you don't permanently remove the default
route).
Hope that helps.
