Returns a file upload input tag tailored for accessing a specified
attribute (identified by method) on an object assigned to the
template (identified by object). Additional options on the
input tag can be passed as a hash with options. These options
will be tagged onto the HTML as an HTML element attribute as in the example shown.
Using this method inside a form_for block will set the
enclosing form's encoding to multipart/form-data.
Options
-
Creates standard HTML attributes for the tag.
-
:disabled- If set to true, the user will not be able to use this input. -
:multiple- If set to true, *in most updated browsers* the user will be allowed to select multiple files. -
:accept- If set to one or multiple mime-types, the user will be suggested a filter when choosing a file. You still need to set up model validations.
