如何在Rails中设置表单的名称？

Question

I tried

<%= form_tag ("/ombcauth", name:"ombc_form") do %>

But it gave me a syntax error:

syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')' ...append= form_tag ("/ombcauth", name:"ombc_form") do @output...

I also tried

<%= form_tag ({action:"/ombcauth"}, {name:"ombc_form"}) do %>

But that also gave me a syntax error

syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting ')' ...form_tag ({action:"/ombcauth"}, {name:"ombc_form"}) do @outp...

I need to reference the form in a link to submit.

<%= link_to "OMBC Auth", "#", {onClick: "document.ombc_form.submit(); return false;"} %> 

rails --version
Rails 3.2.11

What you did is correct. The problem is in the white space between form_tag and ( :

<%= form_tag("/ombcauth", name:"ombc_form") do %>

Or without parenthesis:

<%= form_tag "/ombcauth", name:"ombc_form" do %>

Hope this helps!
