Ruby on Rails Submit button not working - ruby-on-rails

Question

I the look and feel of my new form for a new Opportunity (put in some tables, css, etc...) and now my "submit" button won't work. It doesn't create a new record nor does it perform any of the validation callbacks... I was wondering if anyone could help me? Here is the output from the terminal:

Answer 1

First, your submit button is in your view, please post that. :)
Second, you're doing an HTTP GET with the parameters that would typically be in a POST. Have you specified your method: :get in the form for some reason accidentally?
