Hi,

I am new to Ruby and rails in general. As of now, I just have a create  
method in my controller which creates only one user. I want to add  
multiple users at once in a views. For example, I should be able to have  
5 user rows in one page and the admin can create any number of users  
(from 1 to 5). While creating a user, the admin should be able to add in  
the attributes pertaining to that user (i.e hiring date, supervisor  
etc). Can anyone give me any pointers on how to implement this in RoR?

Thanks

An example of the output should be like:

# Employee Hiringdate Supervisor

1 xyz pqpq xyzwq  
2 xyzw prpr oror  
3 . . .  
4 . . .  
5 . . .

There should be 5 rows (each corresponding to one employee) in the page  
and the admin should be able to fill up 5 different rows at once and hit  
submit.
