Ruby on Rails

Hi All,

I am new to RoR and I am writing a small blog application. I have added a Destroy / Delete link to the post index, but when I click this delete link the show action is fired. The log seems to confirm this: 

Started GET "/posts/2" for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at 2014-03-31 15:51:03 +0000

Processing by PostsController#show as HTML

  Parameters: {"id"=>"2"}

  Post Load (0.1ms)  SELECT "posts".* FROM "posts" WHERE "posts"."id" = ? LIMIT 1  [["id", "2"]]

  Comment Load (0.1ms)  SELECT "comments".* FROM "comments" WHERE "comments"."post_id" = ?  [["post_id", 2]]

  Rendered posts/show.html.erb within layouts/application (9.0ms)

Completed 200 OK in 120ms (Views: 117.3ms | ActiveRecord: 0.2ms)

My destroy method in the controller is: 

def destroy

    @post = Post.find(params[:id])

    @post.destroy

    redirect_to posts_path

end

The code in the index view is: 

       <td><%= link_to 'Destroy', post, method: :delete, data: {confirm: 'Are you sure?'}  %></td>

Would anyone have any idea what I might be missing here? 

Any help appreciated

Peter
