using image_tag as submit button inside form_for block in haml

[Liberty1776]

Hi,

I'm using standard Rails form builder form_for and haml.
I'm trying to replace standard Rails submit button with an image.
In addition Javascript runs on submit event.
How can I replace this by link_to image_tag?
--------
remote_form_for(@message, :html => {:onsubmit => "jQuery(<code>)"})
do |f|
= f.error_messages
%table
- #... regular form fields with some more indentation ...
= f.submit 'Send It'

-# I thought this might work, but onsubmit event is not
firing.
= link_to image_tag('message_send.png'), :action =>
'create', :method => :post, :id => @message

--------

Would really appreciate your help.

Thank you,
Michael

This is more of a Rails question than a Haml question, isn't it? Does it have anything specific to do with Haml?

Yes, you're right. It's not haml at all. I just had this fixation on
it.
A partial answer is in

Actually there is a haml question here:
I ended up writing this:
= link_to image_tag('message_send_button.png', |
:alt => 'Send it!', |
:onmouseover =>
"this.src='message_send_button_hoverstate.png'", |
:onmouseout =>
"this.src='message_send_button.png'"), :action => 'create', :id =>
@message

But it doesn't work. I get a message:
invalid filter name ":onmouseout =>
"this.src='message_send_button.png'"), :action => 'create', :id =>
@message".

It seems to complain about the last line no matter which of these
strings above I put in.

How would you suggest to break this statement into multiple lines in
haml?

You should really put this in a helper. The reason the multiline isn't working is because you need a pipe on the last line as well, but see http://haml-lang.com/docs/yardoc/file.FAQ.html#q-multiline.
