Form With Quantity doesn't seem to submit
- by Karl Entwistle
Hey guys, I've been trying to understand the documentation and find an example, but I'm at a loss.
This is just a submit form within the cart for updating the quantity. However, the updated quantity is not getting saved to the database -- it always makes the quantity 0. Please help.
Form
<% for line_item in @cart.line_items %>
<% form_for :lineitems, :url => {:controller => "line_items", :action => "cart_update", :id => "#{line_item.product_id}"} do |l| %>
<%= l.text_field :quantity, :size => '3', :value => line_item.quantity %>
<%= l.submit 'cart_update' %>
<% end %>
Route
map.connect 'line_item_update', :controller => 'line_items', :action => 'cart_update'
Controller
def cart_update
@product = Product.find(params[:id])
item = LineItem.find_or_create_by_cart_id(:cart_id => current_cart.id, :product_id => @product.id, :quantity => 0, :unit_price => @product.price)
item.quantity = (params[:quantity]).to_i
item.save
redirect_to :controller => 'products'
end
