Is there a better way to do what I am doing, one that is more rails standards then what I am attempting?:
<%= form_for @project, :html => {:class => 'form-horizontal'} do |f| %>
<div class="control-group">
<%= f.label :project_title %>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<%= f.text_field :project_title %>
</div>
<div class='control-group'>
<%= f.submit %>
</div>
<% end %>
Some part of me thinks this is wrong. So I am wondering what standards are? I am have been reading rails form helpers
Yes. Take a look to simple_form with twitter bootstrap support.
