Compile error in ruby on rails application (error is with rails form helpers)

I'm writing a ruby on rails application, and am getting a compile error for the following code

<%= form_tag(search_path, :method => "get") do %>
<%= label_tag(:q, "Search for:") %>
<%= text_field_tag(:q) %>
<%= submit_tag("Search") %>
<% end %>

this is sample code from the ruby on rails forms guide: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/form_helpers.html

The error generated is,

compile error /Users/kmb89144/Desktop/Stoastic/app/views/application/index.html.erb:3: syntax error, unexpected ')' ...h_path, :method => "get") do ).to_s); @output_buffer.concat ... 开发者_StackOverflow社区 ^ /Users/kmb89144/Desktop/Stoastic/app/views/application/index.html.erb:13: syntax error, unexpected kENSURE, expecting ')' /Users/kmb89144/Desktop/Stoastic/app/views/application/index.html.erb:15: syntax error, unexpected kEND, expecting ')'

Extracted source (around line #3):

1: 

2:

3: <%= form_tag(search_path, :method => "get") do %>

4: <%= label_tag(:q, "Search for:") %>

5: <%= text_field_tag(:q) %>

6: <%= submit_tag("Search") %>

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Try to remove = from form line:

<% form_tag(search_path, :method => "get") do %>

Please use form_with, because in the new versions of Rails 5 the functions form_for and form_tag will be discontinued.

Use that:

<%= form_with(url: search_path, method: :get, local:true) do |f|%>
  <%= f.label 'Search for:' %>
  <%= f.text_field :q, id: :q %>
  <%= f.submit 'Search' %>
<% end %>
