Just implemented hot-input in a form, and it works great when editing an existing record but doesn't seem to work when creating a new record...

  <venuetype-view:><hot-input ajax /></venuetype-view:>
  <name-label:><%= @this.venuename %> Name</name-label:>

label changes correctly when changing the 'venuetype' when editing, always blank when creating a new record.

May be I need something different to @this.venuename to always get the live field change? or is this a bug?

Also, I tried to edit the <hot-input> cookbook page, as there are a few typos in the example, but I get a github 404 error.

Thanks, Anthony.

Try @foo.venuename or this.venuename (without the @). Those are the
two canonical usages. @this is one of those things that works by
"accident" but isn't tested or documented.

If that doesn't work, please create a new issue on Github and I'll look into it.

Yes, that's really annoying. If you log into github from that 404
page, it'll take you to the correct page. I've got a report filed
with Github. If you want to be helpful, please also file a bug
report. I suspect that issues that are reported more than once are
accorded a higher priority. :)

Say something like

"If I click the 'edit this page' link from
http://cookbook-1.4.hobocentral.net/tagdef/hobo_rapid/inputs/hot-input,
I get a 404 error. Yet the page does exist; if I log in, then it
takes me to the correct page. Could you please fix it so that it
shows a "please log in" page rather than a "404" page?

thanks,
Bryan
