Documentation

Install the plugin: 
ruby script/plugin install http://multimodel-forms.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/multimodel_forms/

=== example
post.rb 

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many_with_attributes :links
end



photo.rb

Can now add a view partial to render the post form and edit the associated photos.

post/_form.rhtml 

Title
<%= f.text_field :title %>

Photo

  <%= render :partial => 'photos/photo', :collection => @post.photos %>


<%= add_link "Add photo", :photo %>



photos/_photo.rhtml 

<% fields_for_associated :post, link do |l_form| %>
  <%= l_form.text_field :url, :index => nil %>
  <%= delete_link_for(link, "Delete", l_form) %>
<% end %>
