Form causing error => "Only post requests are allowed"?

Rails
1

Why does the form give the error “Only post requests are allowed.”
when submitted to my action? I know the form is supposed to be a post.
the rake routes looks ok. some reason there is a “_method”=>“put” in
the reques parameters, would this cause it? how do i change the form
code to prevent this?

verify_edit_club_address_path(@club, @address)) do |f| -%>

<% form_for([@club, @address], :url =>
verify_edit_club_address_path(@club, @address)) do |f| -%>

This way, Rails should be able to find out the right method by itself.
It depends on the state of @address.
If it’s generated with
@address = Adress.new()
and not saved, it’ll generate a put, otherwise if it’s based on an
record in the db, (eg Address.find(…)) it’ll be a post

But you can change the form method easy enough if necessary:

<% form_for([@club, @address], :url =>
verify_edit_club_address_path(@club, @address), :method => :post) do |
f| -%>
