Okay, so in this video,
we're going to be styling the trees.
0:00
The new form, we're gonna style that.
0:04
We're gonna style this page, and
really, I think that's about it, and
0:05
we're also gonna style this page,
the show page.
0:10
Not only that, but after this,
we're going to add a user ID.
0:13
So what we're gonna make it
happen is that you see this form,
0:18
if we destroy and then we go New tree.
0:21
You see this user ID form,
this user ID text input,
0:23
we're gonna fill that
with the current user ID.
0:26
And then with the current user ID, we can
figure out who actually owns the tree.
0:29
And whoever owns the tree can be
the only person to actually destroy it.
0:36
Currently, anyone who signed in can
destroy this tree, but we don't want that.
0:40
We want the person who actually
made it to be able to destroy it.
0:44
But first of all, let's style this.
0:47
So I'm gonna just make go into my folder,
and here we go.
0:49
And so it's in trees and form, and
so this is the form right here.
0:55
As you can see,
we have all of the text fields right here.
0:59
So in order not to waste
time with styling,
1:04
as this is a Ruby on Rails course,
I'm just gonna copy and paste my styles.
1:06
But again, the process is pretty
much the same as the device.
1:09
We're gonna create a CSS file, we're gonna
call it trees.css, then all in here,
1:12
all you have to do is add all the styling.
1:17
You have to add a style tag inside
of the htmlerb files, and then,
1:19
yeah, everything will work and
your styling will apply to these files.
1:23
If you've got the source code and
isn't working, make sure to add jQuery.
1:27
I add it in the application.htmlerb, so
just go to layouts, application.htmlerb,
1:31
take this script tag, and
then put it here inside of the head.
1:37
And now, as you can see,
this part is styled, but this part is not.
1:41
So I'm gonna do that now.
1:45
And as you can see now, this works,
it's successfully styled.
1:47
I can edit it, and the form works,
and this works as well, and
1:50
I can change the mode, the style.
1:55
All right, so
the trees are successfully styled.
1:58
Un the next video, I'm gonna show
you how to change the URL up here.
2:01
So what we wanted to say is the name of
the tree, but currently it says four, but
2:04
next video we're gonna change
it to the name of the tree.
