Trouble passing form input to controller action

Rails
1

Hi all,

I’m having trouble passing my form intput from a “view” into the
controller to perform the qury. I’m looging at teh log and the
controller is not picking up the values i enter in to the form at
all. It evaluates to NIL.

Here is the log output

Processing StoreController#display_search (for 127.0.0.1 at
2006-07-23 21:30:35) [POST]
Session ID: 161a0485ff2a5bc53dd26ea724e79036

{“title”=>“cookbook”}, “action”=>“display_search”,
“controller”=>“store”}

Here is how i have my code in the controller. Am I missing something?

def display_search
@products = Product.find( :all , :conditions => [“title = ?”,
@params[:product] ])
render(:action => ‘display_search’)
end

Here is the snippet from my View:

<%= start_form_tag (:action => ‘display_search’) %>
Search for title <%= text_field(“product”,“title”,“size” => 40) %>
<%= submit_tag(" SEARCH ") %>
<% end_form_tag %>

Here is my render action

<% for product in @products %>
<%= h(product.title) %>

<%= product.description %>

<% end %>
