Overridding readonly attribute in custom form builder

Hi,

I've created a custom form builder and overridden text_area so that all fields are readonly.

There are a few instances that I would want an editable text_area, so I have tried to create an editable_text_area method.

I have tried passing text_area(method, options.merge(:readonly=>false)) to the method, but it doesn't work: the area is still not editable. Any suggestions on how to override the readonly value in my editable method?

class ReadOnlyFormBuilder < ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder   def text_area(method, options = {})     super(method, options.merge(:readonly=>true))   end

  def editable_text_area(method, options = {})     text_area(method, options.merge(:readonly=>false))   end end
