Adding Styling - using Simple Form and button_to

I'm trying to update the styling on the registrations/edit.html.erb page. I'm not sure how to use simple form for

<p>Unhappy? <%= button_to "Cancel my account", registration_path(resource_name), :data => { :confirm => "Are you sure?" }, :method => :delete %></p>

This isn't right but I'm not sure how else to do it

<p>Unhappy? <%= f.button :submit, "Cancel my account", registration_path(resource_name), :data => { :confirm => "Are you sure?" }, :method => :delete %></p>

Thanks

After the method key, try adding the following:

:class => 'btn'

That comes from the Twitter bootstrap documentation.

Hi Tessa, what are you trying to accomplish exactly?

I'm updating the look of the page using simple form to make it all look nicer, but I can't seem to work out how to make the 'Cancel my account' button into an f.button :submit like the others (see the code copied above - it doesn't work).

excellent, problem solved. thanks
