Rails newbie here.

I have a list of items which can have a status represented by an integer (right now its just 1=active 0=inactive).

What I want is next to each item a link to change the status of that item. So it might look like this:

A nice item - Enable

Another pretty item - Disable

I can't think of how to make the link work. I just want a user to click the link and then the page refreshes and the item get updated.

This doesn't work:

<%= link_to "Enable", :controller => "items", :action => "update", :status => 1 %>
