I’m using Rails 2.3.8.
How do you create a link that will update a column?
So, I’m trying <%= link_to 'stuff', :controller => controller, :action => action, :id => id %>
The action method will just update the column of the row associated with :id, so I don’t want it to redirect to controller/action page. I just want the column updated and call save on the object.
Never use a GET to update anything, always use a POST. Meaning: A link is bad practice and a security risk.
