rails form_for styling

Question

Is there a way to add styling to rails form_for and make it display inline?

Answer 1

There might be a cleaner way to do this, but it works. (I tried with another nested hash, no dice)

 <% form_for(@model, :html => { :style => 'background-color:red;' }) do |f| %> 

Answer 2

A even cleaner way would be to define the styling in an external stylesheet (like application.css). form_for creates a <form id="something"/> tag with an id attribute. You can of course use this id in your stylesheet(s) to apply some specific styling to the form.
