问题:

I'm starting to digg some rails plugins to create modal forms in rails. Almost all documents that you find are too old (2006,2007) or more focused in php. I would like to create a "feedback" tab that when you click on that, it opens a form. For example, you can check the railscast website, http://railscasts.com/. Ryan Bates made it in his website, but didnt make any screencast about it.

any idea/tip about a rails plugin to work with jquery and to do those forms?

Check this tutorial on rails+jquery

Then just pick a jquery plugin that suits you and supports some kind of modal display. A little selection for you

Simplemodal
Thickbox
FancyBox
nyroModal
Simple JQuery Modal Window
Modal Panels
Lightbox
Block UI
JqModal
Pirobox
JQuery UI Dialog
Facebox
Impromptu
jDialog
FancyZoom
Choose Component
jBox
Greybox Redux
Modal Dialog

Can't be bothered to insert links to all of them

Thanks for the above listing. I find this link useful as well. There are a few that aren't in the list above, and it gives some screen shots in the post. http://komunitasweb.com/2009/03/jquery-modal-box-round-up/
