Question

How can I set the class and id attribute for the form element through semantic_form_for?

The following code:

<% semantic_form_for (@meetingsearch), :class => "new_meeting_search", :id => "meeting_search" do |f| %>

gives me:

<form action="/meetingsearches" class="formtastic meetingsearch" id="new_meetingsearch" method="post">

This should do what you need (untested):

<% semantic_form_for @meetingsearch, :html => { :class => "new_meeting_search", :id => "meeting_search" } do |f| %>

For clarification, semantic_form_for wraps around Rails’ built in form_for, so this is exactly how you do it in regular Rails forms also:

<% form_for @meetingsearch, :html => { class => "new_meeting_search", :id => "meeting_search" } do |f| %>
