Hi, I''m really new to RoR and web development in general, so if I''m going about this in a really stupid manner, let me know. I have a search form that redirects to ''List'' when you hit search. ''List'' looks at the array of search parameters passed through, and uses the paginator to return the appropriate results from my MySql database. Here''s what I''m doing in my ''List'' def, where ''accssn'' is the array of search parameters : acc = params[:accssn] if(@acc != nil) @type = acc[:type] @gene = acc[:gene] @accssn_pages, @accssns = paginate :accssns, :per_page => 25, :conditions => ["type = ? AND gene = ?",@type,@gene] end The problem is, in list.rhtml I have links to next page and previous page, in which I simply overwrite the parameters and change the page number: <%= link_to ''Next page'', { :overwrite_params => { :page => @accssn_pages.current.next} } if @accssn_pages.current.next %> But the search array doesn''t get passed to page 2 or whatever correctly, and instead of being passed as an array it is passed as one long string. So ''acc = params[:accssn]'' returns this long string instead of the array that the original search returned. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
