button_to
Author: Scott Whitman
Author: Ashley Vernon
Documentation on button_to:
http://apidock.com/rails/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper/button_to
Issue:
<%= link_to "New User", new_user_path, :class => "button" %><br />
<%= button_to "New User", new_user_path, :class => "button" %><br />
Error: No route matches [POST] "/users/new"
The reason this doesn't work is because by default button_to has a default method of Post. You can overwrite it:
<%= button_to "New User", new_user_path, :class => "button", :method => :get %>
