Question

I have this URL for my edit form :

<%=form_for @cad,:url =>{:action => "update",:controller => "cad" } do |f| %>

And it should point to "/cad/update",but the URL is pointing to “cad/6”.

Please help.
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

it’s perfectly fine if you follow restful routes for update it’s a member route
There are 2 types of route

first one is collection route which will work on in general for all object like index action and second one is member route which will work on specific object like show,edit,update,destroy etc ,

In your case update is member route it has http verbs is put and it’s basically post request
you can check http method
and You don’t need url hash on form rails pick it routes based on object
