Rails : How to use an object along with a text_area_tag of form_tag?

<%= text_area_tag :body_html, "", :class =>"required mceEditor", :id=>"txaEditableContent" %>

This is my code. I want this text_area_tag to be assigned to an object(object is note in my case) just like we use "form_for object" so that the :body_html goes straight into params[:note] on submit. How can I do this?

You have got to set first an instance of Note in the controller corresponding action:

@note = Note.new

Then, in your view put this form:

<%= form_for @note do |f| %>
  <%= f.text_area :body_html, :class => "required mceEditor", :id => "txaEditableContent" %>
  <%= f.submit "Submit" %>
<% end %>

Now when you click the submit button you should get the right post request as you needed.
