module Formtastic module Helpers # ButtonsHelper encapsulates the responsibilties of the {#buttons} and {#commit_button} helpers # for submitting forms. # # {#buttons} is used to wrap the form's button(s) and actions in a `
` and `
    `, # with each item in the list containing the markup representing a single button. # # {#buttons} is usually called with a block containing a single {#commit_button} call: # # <%= semantic_form_for @post do |f| %> # ... # <%= f.buttons do %> # <%= f.commit_button # <% end %> # <% end %> # # The HTML output will be something like: # #
    # ... #

      #
    1. # #
    2. #
    #
    #
    # # While this may seem slightly over-engineered, it is consistent with the way form inputs are # handled, and makes room for other types of buttons and actions in future versions (such as # cancel buttons or links, reset buttons and even alternate actions like 'save and continue # editing'). # # It's important to note that the `semantic_form_for` and {#buttons} blocks wrap the # standard Rails `form_for` helper and form builder, so you have full access to every standard # Rails form helper, with any HTML markup and ERB syntax, allowing you to "break free" from # Formtastic when it doesn't suit to create your own buttons, links and actions: # # <%= semantic_form_for @post do |f| %> # ... # <%= f.buttons do %> #
  1. # <%= f.submit "Save" %> #
  2. #
  3. # <% end %> # <% end %> # # There are many other syntax variations and arguments to customize your form. See the # full documentation of {#buttons} and {#commit_button} for details. # # @deprecated ButtonsHelper will be removed after 2.1 module ButtonsHelper include Formtastic::Helpers::FieldsetWrapper include Formtastic::LocalizedString # Creates a fieldset and ol tag wrapping for use around a set of buttons. It can be # called either with a block (in which you can do the usual Rails form stuff, HTML, ERB, etc), # or with a list of named buttons. These two examples are functionally equivalent: # # # With a block: # <% semantic_form_for @post do |f| %> # ... # <% f.buttons do %> # <%= f.commit_button %> # <% end %> # <% end %> # # # With a list of fields: # <% semantic_form_for @post do |f| %> # <%= f.buttons :commit %> # <% end %> # # # Output: #
