At work, I discovered that using the standard ���form_for��� helper with simply restful generated invalid markup, since the secret ���fake method��� input tag was not enclosed in a proper element.

Therefore, I wrote a plugin to hack it in for the time being. you can get by:

script/plugin install http://svn.soniciq.com/public/rails/plugins/iq_fix_restful_method_tag

It works by hacking the tag helper to put a div tag around itself first if the tag has a name of ���_method���. Evil, but it works for now.
