Ruby on Rails

here is the taskschedule#new view

<%= form_for @taskschedule, :url=>taskschedules_path do |f| %>
<p>Area: <%= f.text_field :name %></p>
<% for service in Service.find(:all) %>
<p><%= check_box_tag :service_ids, service.id,
@taskschedule.services.include?(service), :name =>
'taskschedule[service_ids][]' -%> <%= service.name %></p>

<% end %>
<%= submit_tag "Submit" %>
<% end -%>

as you can see i am assigning services to the taskschedule through the
model "area". that works.
the problem is i have a textfield in the model area that i want to
fill over this view. i tried fields_for(:area) but get an error
message?
thanks,
ed
