additional text - instructions

[Ivor Paul]

Hi All

I have some instructions that apply to all the fields in my create form.
I dont want to add it to the label for each form field. I would like to just add some text to the right of the fields, or at the top of the page to instruct the user on what to do.

How would you go about that? I basically want stock standard admin view activescaffold, with some extra html (ERB) somewhere else on the page.

Regards
Ivor

I would vote for copying _create_form.rhtml to your controllers view
path and add whatever you need.

You don't need copy it, you can create a new _create_form.rhtml for each
controller and use render :super.

<%= render :super %>

Currently used in created and edit, sounds like it would work for you
without overriding anything.
