I want to display the top three schools (in @top_schools array) in my
view which is in a column on the left on the site. This is the same for
all views and all controllers so naturally it''s in the layout file in
the partial _lcol.html.erb
The problem is, being in a partial it''s displayed for whatever action
it
is in. I don''t know where to put it in the controller. Putting it in
the
index action of the Schools controller only displays the array for that
action. How do I make it universal aside from putting the business logic
right into the view?
<% for school in @top_schools %>
<li><%= school.title %></li>
<% end %>

Put it in the application.rb file in the app/controllers directory.

I tried before. class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base @top_schools = School.find end does not make the @top_schools variable available to the view. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
