Greetings, I'm trying to understand why I cannot output embedded ruby content between div tags:
I have a div which I'm setting from a template and ruby code creating a table rows:
<div id='line_items'> <% @packing_slip.packing_items.each_with_index do |@item, i| %> <tr class='altRow'> <td align="center"><%= (i + 1) %></td> <div id='track' style='display:none;'> <%= text_field "tracking_number", @item.tracking_number %> </div> </tr> <% end %> </div>
When I view the selection source (ff 2.0 is neato!), line_items does not contain the table rows:
<div id="line_items">
</div><tr class="altRow"> <td align="center">1</td> <div id="track" style="display: none;"> <input size="30" name="tracking_number" id="tracking_number_" type="text">
</div> </tr>
<tr class="altRow"> <td align="center">2</td> <div id="track" style="display: none;"> <input size="30" name="tracking_number" id="tracking_number_" type="text"> </div> </tr>
I thought perhaps it has something to do with embedding the code within a remote_form_for and changed that to a form_for. Same thing. I know that using only divs, without table tags, does wrap the field:
<div id="line_items"> <% @packing_slip.packing_items.each_with_index do |@item, i| %> <div id='track' style='display:none;'> <%= text_field "tracking_number", @item.tracking_number %> </div> <% end %> </div>
<table width="100%"> <thead> </thead> <tbody> <tr class="altRow"> <th>Item</th> <th>RMA # </th> <th>Part # </th>
<th>Description</th> <th>Qty</th> <th>Serial # </th> <th>Tracking # </th> </tr> <div id="line_items">
<div style="display: none;" id="track">
<input size="30" name="tracking_number" id="tracking_number_" type="text"> </div>
<div style="display: none;" id="track"> <input size="30" name="tracking_number" id="tracking_number_" type="text"> </div>
</div> </tbody> </table>
However, I'd rather not sacrifice the table layout at this time. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
