Button that submits a value

[dereke]

I want to render a button that submits a form with a named value like this:

<button type="submit" name="remove_thing" value="some-id">Remove thing</button>

I can't seem to get this to work as you can't seem to change a button component to submit:

form.button(
  type: :submit,
  name: "remove_thing",
  value: "some-id",
  label: "Remove thing"
)

I've also tried using a form.submit() but the label overrides the value.

Is there some other way of doing this?

Thanks for letting us know.

@camertron given your knowledge of our forms setup, could you take a look at this and weigh in?

Hey @dereke, thanks for bringing this up! Seems like an oversight 😄 This PR should fix it: #3141
