(newbie) Why doesn't this line work?

ruby-talk

<td><%= link_to 'Edit', :confirm => 'Are you sure?', :action => 'edit',
:id => product %></td>

Why doesn't this work the way it should, which is (from my
understanding)
1. link something to edit
2. before going to the edit page, asking 'are you sure?'

Help.

  :confirm belongs to html_options. It should look like link_to
'Edit', { :action => 'edit', :id => product }, { :confirm => 'Are you
sure?' }

If it's there, and you can see it, it's real.
If it's not there, and you can see it, it's virtual.
If it's there, and you can't see it, it's transparent.
If it's not there, and you can't see it, you erased it.

Nice, thanks.

Does anyone have a tree of nods/level/structure of where and how these
objects should go?

Thanks

The best place to go is http://api.rubyonrails.com/ For example in your case
you could visit:
http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper.html#M000378
Note that parameters are passed as hashes, so it's important to distinguish
between them while passing.
