#link_to_remove_association(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

this will show a link to remove the current association. This should be placed inside the partial. either you give

  • html_options: html options to be passed to link_to (see link_to)

or you use the form without name with a *&block*

  • f : the form this link should be placed in
