In the old way, you can always pass params like this, right?
<%= link_to "Whatever",:url => {:action => :new,param1 => :foobar} %>
How would you do this Restfully?
Mike,
You can pass various parameters through the your restful routes.
<%= link to( "create a new resource", resource_path( :id => resource, :extra_param => foo, :extra_param_2 => bar ) ) %>
Something along those lines should work fine.
Cheers, Robby
That's actually the way I first thought of, but it didn't work it seems. Scrolling down in the error page reveals all the parameters passed, and the ones passed through the restful routes don't show up.
Oh, I found out the reason it was reporting errors. I forgot that it was nested, so it needed 1 more parameter for the ID and then it accepted other params. Thanks!
