Hope someone can tell me what''s up, because this has me baffled.
I have an Image model, and a Provider model. Both are defined as
"has_and_belongs_to_many" relating to each other. In my image form
partial, I have a bit of AJAX generating the provider_ids array
dynamically from a provider AJAX search on the same page.
So for example, each time I click on a provider name that comes up in
the search, it adds a line like this to the form markup:
<input type="hidden" name="image[provider_ids][]"
value="3">
On hitting the submit button, Rails saves the Image model as expected,
and creates all the entries in my images_providers table. (consisting
of just image_id and provider_id)
The problem comes in when editing an image. On the edit page, I have
the same functionality as above available, but the existing provider
entries are already displayed on the page. So I''ll have in the form:
<input type="hidden" name="image[provider_ids][]"
value="3">
<input type="hidden" name="image[provider_ids][]"
value="5">
Now no matter what I do, I cannot get Rails to update the Image on
submit. I''m using a dead simple method:
def update
@image = Image.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if @image.update_attributes(params[:image])
format.html { redirect_gallery_edit }
else
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
end
end
end
However, when this runs, Rails spits out the following:
Provider(#36927920) expected, got Provider(#39471020)
If I update an image with NO linked providers, everything is fine. I''m
stumped. Here''s the last couple of lines from the trace, in case
it''s
