I have the following table in a form that's embedded in a formtastic form (semantic_form_for). Everything I ask to be generated by ruby shows up, but the table gets badly mangled (essentially, the tags NEVER get formed.
The table headers get drawn correctly
There are 14 available_date objects that get passed, and they alternate between having a time value of 1 or 2, so this is just terribly boggling, but probably simple to fix...
<table class="availability_table">
<tr>
<th>Date</th>
<th>Early</th>
<th>Late</th>
</tr>
<% f.fields_for :available_dates do |ad| %>
<% if ad.object.time == 1 #if this is an early shift, then start the new row %>
<tr><td><%= ad.object.date.strftime('%a, %b %d, %Y') %></td>
<td><%= ad.collection_select(:availability , LookupAvailability.all.collect, :id, :name) %></td>
<% else #otherwise end the row with just a box%>
<td><%= ad.collection_select(:availability , LookupAvailability.all.collect, :id, :name) %></td></tr>
<% end %>
<% end %>
</table>
So like I said, the form functions properly, and the objects all get updated and displayed correctly and all that, it's just that the HTML isn't getting echo'd out properly so my table is all mangled. Help!
