I have a form where the user can view a list of line items that has description (read only) and quantity (input field). Can someone please give me pointers on how to allow users to enter the quantity for the line items they want and save it in the database? I also need to validate to make sure that they enter integers only. TIA.
Check this tutorial: STEPHEN CHU . com: params[:fu] #5 ) Update multiple models in update action atomically. (the whole series is really great).
Basically you can do something like: @models = Model.update([array_of_ids], [{:attribute => value_for_first_object}, {:attribute => value_for_second_object},...])
Then you can iterate over @models to check for errors on returned objects.
