This is the original HTML code:
<form id="login" action="/barbie/main">
<h1>Log In</h1>
<fieldset id="inputs">
<input id="username" type="text" placeholder="Username" autofocus required>
<input id="password" type="password" placeholder="Password" required>
</fieldset>
<fieldset id="actions">
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Log in">
<a href="/barbie/register">Register</a>
</fieldset>
</form>
I'm trying to change this to Rails form code. I googled and found that I have to change it like this:
<%= form_for(:model), :html=> {:id => 'login'} do |form| %>
<p>
<%=form.label :input%>
<%=form.text_field :input, :placeholder => 'Enter text here...'%>
</p>
<p>
<%=form.label 'condiment'%>:
<%=form.check_box :ketchup%>
</p>
<%end%>
If I run this, I get an error:
C:/Users/Hyunjae.Park/rubyworkspace/Barbie_WebUI/app/views/barbie/login.html.erb:20: syntax error, unexpected tASSOC, expecting keyword_end
...end= form_for(:model), :html=> {:id => 'custom_form_id'} do...

21: <p>
22: <%=form.label :input%>

Also I don't understand what this :model
or @user
kind of thing is in Rails.
