Cant see my password box in ruby on rails app!

also, look at the end tag, it has this ending -%>, not a biggie I suppose

and the if line has that ending as well

hey maciej, Im sure Im annoying you by now but I have a new error with the regular expression. The terminal is throwing this to me:

Did you mean to use \A and \z, or forgot to add the :multiline => true option? (ArgumentError)

So far I have the code exactly as copied from the video:

format: { with: /^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$/, message: 'Must be formatted correctly' }

where do I add the multiline option?

Yeah, it has something to do with safety in new Rails. Try using something like this:

/\A[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+\z/

Also I wish I could repay you for all your help. Sadly I am just learning :(

Whenever I help people with problems here, I learn something new or recall something that I knew before and lost it from my memory because I haven't used it for some time :). That's good enough for me. I also like seeing people advancing in their educational endeavors. I also sometimes get Treehouse points, although I only treat them as auxiliary motivators :).

Did this regex work?

yup, youre a wiz. I've been compiling my 'struggles' with the project to document them in an orderly fashion for the next gen of users. Can you give me a brief overview on why the regular expressions changed in the latest version?

No idea. I just saw this error/warning some months ago, googled it and though: "OK, so that's how I'll have to do it from now on".

This answer seems good in explaining the differences:

Edit: so it's vulnerable to javascript injection.

Cool makes good sense and that was a good read.

The good news is Im starting to understand most of the bugs I encounter along the process, but I have one more that I have fallen upon during the profile section of the app. I cant seem to access the proper id when going to my profile.

See reference below:

Try removing the spaces after _name and after params in that line.

and here I thought spaces rarely matter in programming. Thanks again x 2000

In Ruby, spaces can sometimes be used instead of parentheses, so they have their specific place in the syntax ;).

Hey Maciej, I finally completed the bloody course with your help, and I was wondering how to fix these last few CSS problems. I cant seem to target the buttons and links like I'd normally expect. Here is a list of minor issues im having:

1.don’t like that log in has a bullet point

2.hate that hovering over all statuses leaves a large grey box. Would want the hover element at most to only cover the all statuses button.

3.how do I target the links on the page in general?

Code is below:
