def index
cond = params[:letter] + "%"
@clients = Client.find :all, :conditions => ["firstname like
?" ,
cond], :order => "firstname ASC"
end
This is my code and it gives me an error everytime saying this:
You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.+
How can I fix this?
Thanks
