The only methods that are valid within a form tag are "GET" and "POST". Since "DELETE" isn't valid, it's probably falling back on "GET".
However, Laravel has a way around this. Just add a hidden input inside of the form with a name of _method:
<input type="hidden" name="_method" value="delete" />
Let me know how this works!
P.S. It also looks like you're not returning anything in your destroy method. You should be returning a view, or a redirect.
the url display http://localhost:8000/products/productsname?_method=delete and still displays 'products.show' route
when i try other method error:
MethodNotAllowedHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 219: in RouteCollection.php line 219 at RouteCollection->methodNotAllowed(array('GET', 'HEAD', 'PUT', 'PATCH', 'DELETE')) in RouteCollection.php line 206 at RouteCollection->getRouteForMethods(object(Request), array('GET', 'HEAD', 'PUT', 'PATCH', 'DELETE')) in RouteCollection.php line 158
I'm so fool I should using POST method and it works, now it calls to the right route name. thanks for pointing that out. I'm to focused to the error message
Yeah, I should have mentioned that you have to set it to post, my bad.
I'm glad you got it figured out!
