I’ve already asked something about link_to here : Multiple posts handled by links and named routes in Rails
I’ve not gotten a reply yet and in the process, i was thinking. Is posting with a link a good practice ? Back in my php days i would actually do that a lot, but do you think one should be doing that in Rails ?
It sure is pretty convenient i suppose.
I can’t see anything wrong with performing POST requests with
link_to. I’d even say it is encouraged!See section “3 Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)” on http://guides.rubyonrails.org/security.html
