Overview

Capture form elements directly from FormBuilder, so that there is no need to specially render any elements. In other words, with our own FormBuilder-wrapper we can do this: form_for :comment, Comment.new, :url => edit_url do |f| f.text_field :name end instead of .. self << f.text_field(:name)
