[PATCH] Add a reset_tag method in form_tag_helper

Probably you don't need to call .stringify_keys twice on options hash :)

Updated the patch. Copy/paste from submit_tag led to the double stringify. (You know, looking at submit_tag, the second stringify is unneeded there as well, as the only intervening operation is adding a key that is explicitly a string.)

-1

Rails is all about guiding the users to best practices, and in the vast majority of forms using a reset button is very bad practice: http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20000416.html

-1 The patch itself is excellently done - especially the documentation - but I'm with jarkko in keeping this out of Rails core. I haven't used a reset button in some time and the useit.com article linked above makes a solid case.

Good work though, I hope to see more patches from you!

Its a -1 from me for the same reasons as above.

OK; I'll cede to the usability concerns here. I can always use submit_tag :type=> 'reset' if I need a reset button, right? :) Marking "wontfix".

aledonne: You can always create your own helper for it and put it in app/helpers/application.rb. That way you'll be able to reuse it in your app. If you need it in multiple apps, you can even make a simple plugin out of it.
