Attribute Labels ================ Attribute Labels does what it says on the tin. You can specify text for each attribute that will appear on form labels and validation messages. If validates_presence_of is set for an attribute an asterisk will be suffixed to its form label. Example ======= class Vehicle < ActiveRecord::Base label :wheels => 'Number of wheels', :man_auto => 'Manual or automatic?', :abs => 'ABS' validates_presence_of :wheels end Where AR would normally give you: 'Wheels', 'Man auto', 'Abs' <% form_for(@vehicle) do |f| %> <%= f.label :wheels %> <%= f.text_field :wheels %> <% end %> Will produce: Number of wheels* ______________ Copyright (c) 2008 Andrew France, released under the MIT license.
