How to create or edit existing _form.html.rb partial from browser

Question

I'm trying to create a survey app where the user can create surveys to ask others.

Scenario is basicaly like this and it's all done on the browser:

User creates new form with as many questions and answer choices as they choose.
Other users can view this form and fill it out, and the answers will be sent to the orignal creator of the form.

It's basically bad idea to create _from.html.rb each time user creates new survey. I think you should write info (schema) of a survey somewhere, e. g. to your database and then generate HTML for it based on the schema in your view. — Oskar Laska

You need dynamic forms to achieve this, there's an awesome gem called nested_form to easily created nested forms. The creator of this gem Ryan Bates has also created a Railscast session to demonstrate its usage and fortunately in that video the demo app is on survey. Here's the link to the video
