field_set_tag should take an options hash

Reported by 2 College Bums | July 8th, 2008 @ 09:11 PM | in 2.x

currently field_set_tag only takes a legend and a block, and forces an empty hash for the options in the fieldset tag call.

module ActionView
  module Helpers
    module FormTagHelper
  def field_set_tag(legend = nil, options={}, &block)
    content = capture(&block)
    concat(tag(:fieldset, options, true), block.binding)
    concat(content, block.binding)
    concat("</fieldset>", block.binding)
  end

    Shouldn't that be:

    module ActionView

    module Helpers

    module FormTagHelper

    def field_set_tag(legend = nil, options={}, &block)

    content = capture(&block)

    concat(tag(:fieldset, options, true), block.binding)

    concat(content_tag(:legend, legend), block.binding) unless legend.blank?

    concat(content, block.binding)

    concat("", block.binding)

    end

    end

    end

    end

    Good catch. However you need a closing fieldset tag

      def field_set_tag(legend = nil, options={}, &block)
        content = capture(&block)
        concat(tag(:fieldset, options, true), block.binding)
        concat(content_tag(:legend, legend), block.binding) unless legend.blank?
        concat(content, block.binding)
        concat("</fieldset>", block.binding) 
      end

    Hey Joshua,

    Thanks for reviewing our ticket. May we ask the rationale for not allowing an options hash for the fieldset tag?

    Thanks!

Creating a feature request

Please don't. If you want a new feature in Rails, you'll have to pull up your sleeves and get busy yourself. Or convince someone else to do it. See the contributor guide on how to get going. But posting them here is just going to lead to ticket root.

Creating a bug report

When creating a bug report, be sure to include as much relevant information as possible. Post the code sample that causes the problem. Preferably, alter the unit tests and show through either changed or added tests how the expected behavior is not occuring.

Security vulnerabilities should be reported via an email to security@rubyonrails.org, do not use trac for reporting security vulnerabilities. All content in trac is publicly available as soon as it is posted.

Then don't get your hopes up. Unless you have a "Code Red, Mission Critical, The World is Coming to an End" kinda bug, you're creating this ticket in the hope that others with the same problem will be able to collaborate with you on solving it. Do not expect that the ticket automatically will see any activity or that others will jump to fix it. Creating a ticket like this is mostly to help yourself start on the path of fixing the problem and for others to sign on to with a "I'm having this problem too".
