If you pass a string to f.submit that will override the default label
and what exatly happens, when i
press submit?
The form gets submitted. What happens next depends on what your
controller does.

It will update the record with the data from" _form.html.erb" when u
press
it.
Look at the html of the form, it says for example
action= “user/create” method=“post”
it means the form will be send to the server with a post to the path
user/create
rails router it RESTful (read about
RESThttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer),
if you type rake route in the console you will
see that if rails get send that request it will send the data in the
page to
the create action
and take the values in the form and create a hash, you then have to
process
the information
in the controller.
use
f.submit ‘Your custom label’
to override. After pressing the button, you will be passed to the
action of
the form of the button you pressed.

Not necessarily. It will initiate the action specified or implied by
the form_for statement. Whether that updates a record or not depends
on what is coded in that action.
