radio buttons form in ruby on rails

[@ddy]

Hi there!

I m using this form:

<%= form_for(:usage, :url=> {:action =>'getResults'}) do |f| %>

    <legend>Select search criteria : </legend>    

    

    <%= f.radio_button :filter, 'uni'%> <span style="font-size:15px;">For Unicast only</span>

    <br>

    <%= f.radio_button :filter, 'multi' %> <span style="font-size:15px;">For Multicasts only</span>

    <br>

    <%= f.radio_button :filter, 'month' %> <span style="font-size:15px;">Current Month</span>

    <br>

    <%= f.radio_button :filter, 'date' %> <span style="font-size:15px;">On this date:

    <br><br>

    <%= f.date_select(:date,:order=>[:day,:month,:year])%>

    <br>

    <%= link_to 'Search', {:action=>"getResults"}, :remote => true, :submit%>

    <% end %>

and in controller I have:

def getResults

if params[:filter] == 'uni'

     

     @results = Multicasts.where(:sms_voice => 'sms')

    end

     

    if params[:filter] =='multi'

      @results = Multicasts.where(:when => 'im')

    end

     

    if params[:filter] =='month'

       @results = Multicasts.where('extract(month  from datetime) = ?', MONTH(date))

    end

    render :new_results

end

Is this a correct way to read info from radio buttons.

Please help, it is not working. Is the syntax correct?

It's horrible markup and very un-Ruby/Rails-ish code, but the key
point is: what EXACTLY do you mean by "not working"?

Is your controller getting the params you expect or not? Is the value
of @results not what you expect for a given input?

What is the problem?
