Trying to link to edit from a different form

Rails
1

Hey everyone,

I am currently writing a Bet program, which consists of 5 forms, a home
form and a form for all of my tables. I am trying to use the button_to
command to link from the home controller/index to another forms/edit
action.

This is what I have so far, any help would be great:

<%= button_to 'Decrease Date', {:controller => :bets, :id => Bet.find_by_milestone_id(m.id), :action => :edit} %>

and I receive this error:
Couldn’t find Bet without an ID

Thanks,
Hunter

So I fixed this issue, now what is happening is the that button_to
function loads the url in my browser then say Unknown Action.

But if I manually enter that same url, it goes to the page I want.

Here’s the button_to:

<%= if !Bet.find_by_milestone_id(m.id).nil? button_to 'Decrease Date', {:controller => :bets, :action => :edit, :id => Bet.find_by_milestone_id(m.id)} end %> <%= if !Bet.find_by_milestone_id(m.id).nil? button_to 'Increase Date', {:controller => :bets, :action => :edit, :id => Bet.find_by_milestone_id(m.id)} end %>

And here’s there error:
Unknown action

No action responded to 38. Actions: create, destroy, edit, index, new,
show, and update

Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Hunter
