If you use MetaSearch, it helps you build your form -- see the readme: https://github.com/ernie/meta_search Now, the app I was working on was more complicated so I did actually create a class so that I could use form builder on my own, and then wrap metasearch behind that. The form consisted of a number of filters. But even if I went straight to metasearch, yes, I would use a form with the fields I want to search which may or may not map to the actual fields I am searching. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
