title: Ruby on Rails form checkbox without model?
body: <p>I want to create a plain checkbox element in my form that I will reference in the index method of my controller. The boolean value will determine one of two scopes I wish to set for use in my filterrific initialization. The checkbox value will not be used for form submission, and will not be persisted in the database, it is simply for determining if the user wishes to see 'closed' tickets when the  - all - option is chosen (the default is to exclude closed tickets.)</p>
  
  <p>I am having a terrible time wrapping my head around all the search results I have been reading. Might someone feel sorry for me and tell me how to proceed? It would be much appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for taking the time to read my question, I do value your attention.</p>
