Wasn't able to fix a NoMethodError in Answers#index issue
# I look for solutions for NoMethodError and tried to switch the @answers by @answers
# I tried to redirect the route of answers#index
# The issue happen when I click on "Back" from any page of the answer view, after editing # an "Answer" or when i land on "http://localhost:3000/answers" since the back button
# redirect me toward this page. I thought the issue could be the name of my path but I
# wasn't able to fix it. I am quite confused that @answer is returned as nil when i click # on back

# Error message I get from : http://localhost:3000/answers

ex48 Test
This is based on an assignment from http://ruby.learncodethehardway.org/book/ex48.html
it seem that the test fail once it tries to scan more than one words,
since 'result' return only one pair and does not match the expected result

Assign a value to a param, from 2 choices.
def new
@micropost = Micropost.new(:tag => '4' )
# Change the value of 'Micropost.find(..).to_guys' to True or False depending on what button was pressed
if request.post?
if params[:name].include?( 'to_guys' )
@micropost.to_guys = true
flash[:notice] = 'This post was sent to guys'
else

Routes
What I am trying to do is: while I am using paginate and navigating through the pages, I want the user to be able to click on a micropost.content and be redirected to the micropost 'display' view as I am using the show view for the admin side.

When I try to submit the form from the _form2 view,the content of the file is empty as if the program didn't recognize the ":commit => "to girls"
<span id="containerright">
<div class="logo"><%= image_tag("home_logo.png")%></div>
<% @micropost = Micropost.new %>
<%= render :partial => 'microposts/form2', :locals => { :micropost => @micropost } %>
