hi, ive just started learning rails and im trying to make a simple blog app

i have the following code on my index page

i can add articles ok but i cant display them

everything ive tried to put between the h1 tags fails? what should I put between the tags to display the data stores in the body and title fields

<%= link_to 'New Article', :action => 'new' %>

<% for article in @articles %>   <tr> <h1>

</h1>     <td><%= link_to 'Show', article %></td>     <td><%= link_to 'Edit', edit_article_path(article) %></td>     <td><%= link_to 'Destroy', article, :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :method => :delete %></td>   </tr> <% end %>

Thanks for any help

assuming that the articles table has a title field, then

<% @articles.each do |article| %>   <h1> <%= article.title %> </h1> <% end %>

would display it.

But if I remember right, H1 tags within a table are not valid html You would have to put them into a TD tag I think. Maybe your code was right and your browser didn't display it for that reason
