Form submit button not showing

Question

I'm working on a project where I'm trying to implement a voting system, but I'm having some trouble, I've tried creating a form with a hidden field:

       <% form_for :vote, url: votes_path do |f| %>
          <%= f.hidden_field :rating, value: '1' %></td>
          <%= form_submit_button("vote 1") %>
       <% end %>

But when I run that the submit button does not appear, I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong.

form_for generates <FORM> tag, so you need to include its output with <%=:

<%= form_for :vote, url: votes_path do |f| %>

Use this code:

   <%= form_for :vote, url: votes_path do |f| %>
      <%= f.hidden_field :rating, value: '1' %></td>
      <%= form_submit_button("vote 1") %>
   <% end %>

= is usually shows the form in view page, if you remove it then any input tag will not be displayed.
