Make a link behave like a form submit button

Hi all,

I was wondering if it was possible to have a link that behaves like a form submit button? I've tried using a link_to with a post method, but it does not perform the same action as a form submit. The action specified in the link_to is called, by the parameters from the form are not populating params.

Is this possible? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Diego

Hi Diego,

I want to know what kind of form you had used? Is it form, form_for, form_remote_tag or something else. As you see I am a beginner and had tried to give my form_for an id but it didnt work.

I really hope that you could help me.

Thank you, fries88
