I'm trying to disable a dropdown field in my form, but with the option disable: true the field is still clickable, thanks for the help!
f.select:
<%= f.select(:point_constraint_id, @point_constraints.collect {|u| [u.name, u.id]}, :prompt => 'Select', label: t('point.operational_limitions') + ' *', label_class: "light-text", disabled: true, required: true )%>1 Answer
Ruby reads hash like parameters in the parameter list as one hash when they are at the end of the parameter list. Therefore all options are passed to the options hash. But the signature of the select method looks like this:
select(object, method, choices = nil, options = {}, html_options = {}, &block)Therefore you need to separate the options from the html_options to help Ruby to understand that disable: true is actually a html_option:
<%= f.select( :point_constraint_id, @point_constraints.collect { |u| [u.name, u.id] }, { prompt: 'Select', label: "#{t('point.operational_limitions')}*", label_class: "light-text", required: true }, { disabled: true } ) %>Note the last {...} around the disabled: true is actually not needed. I added it to make it clearer that you need to pass two hashes to that method. One with the options for the select, another for pure the HTML options.
