form_test_helper edge gets support for multiple submit buttons
on November 27, 2007 @ 11:49 AM
form_test_helper edge has been updated to support multiple submit buttons on a form. It also includes a fix to avoid namespace collisions if models are named Select, Option, etc.
If you have a view which looks like:
1 2 3 4 |
<form id="test"> <input type="submit" value="yes" /> <input type="submit" value="no" /> </form> |
You can have choose which value to submit when the form is submitted:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
# selecting the form and submitting it in separate steps form = select_form "test", :submit_value => "yes" form.submit # submitting a form with a submit value in one step submit_form "test", :submit_value => "yes" # submitting a form with a submit value in one step using a block submit_form "test", :submit_value => "yes" do |form| # .. end |
You don’t have to supply a :submit_value. If you don’t the first submit value found on the form will be used. If you try to supply a non-existent value then an exception will raised.
For example:
1 2 3 |
# trying to submit on a non-existent input value form = select_form "test", :submit_value => "fooey" form.submit # => raises a FormTestHelper::Form::MissingSubmitError |
