Use custom id for check_box_tag in Rails

Question

How do you set a custom id when using a check_box_tag helper in rails?

I have a loop which creates a bunch of checkboxes based on a collection:

- subject         


        

Answer 1

If you give the check box an extra parameter it will work:

= check_box_tag 'question[syllabus_reference]', 1, nil, :id => sr.id
