    <p>My goal is to have a form where I fill in some details and then I can hit 'add question' which is a link that should dynamically add a question.</p> <p>i.e.</p> <hr> <p>Date:<br> Name:<br> Description: </p> <p><strong>Add a Question</strong></p> <p>Create </p> <hr> <p>my <b>_form.html.haml</b> starts off as such as such (this form is under views/interviews since my goal is to be able to add questions to an interview. However, questions can be used independently of interviews as well)</p> <pre><code>= form_for ([:posting, @interview]) do |ff|&lt;br&gt; - if @interview.errors.any? . . . (more fields) . . . .field{:id =&gt; "overall_questions"} =link_to "Add a Question", new_question_path, :remote =&gt; true %br/ %br/ .field{:id =&gt; "individual_questions"} =ff.label :whyyy =ff.fields_for :questions, @interview.questions do |builder| = render :partial =&gt; "question_fields" %br/ %br/ .actions = ff.submit </code></pre> <p><b>_question_fields.html.haml</b></p> <pre><code>.fields{:id =&gt; "question#{builder.object.id}"} =ff.label :content, "Question" =link_to "Remove", question_path(builder.object.id), :remote =&gt; true, :confirm =&gt; "Are you sure?", :method =&gt; :delete %br/ =ff.text_area :content, :rows =&gt; 3 </code></pre> <p>the :remote => true (from _form.html.haml) gets directed to my <b>questions_controller.rb</b></p> <pre><code>def new @question = Question.new respond_to :js end </code></pre> <p>this links to my <b>new.js.erb</b> file under views/questions</p> <pre><code>$('#individual_questions').clone().appendTo($('#overall_questions')) </code></pre> <p>The thing is, I'm not quite sure how to call the _question_fields.html.haml. I know the js.erb file works because I've been able to run alert boxes when clicking 'Add a question' and it also currently appends the Whyyy from the field with id individual questions.</p>

    1. COFirst, welcome to the site! Second, don't worry about your newness - just focus on asking good questions, as outlined in the FAQ (http://stackoverflow.com/faq) - that's all that really matters. Third, I've edited your question to get it down to the parts that really matter. Stick to the relevant information, and you'll be fine. Lastly, you don't need to put your tags in the question itself - that's just duplicating the list of tags, which controls who sees your question.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
