Rails - Jan 2006 - HELP: NoMethodError (undefined method `stringify_keys!'' for

We have a flash developer who is intergating with a rails application 
when
he posts a particular variable (in this case ''rating'') We get
a ''Rails
Application
Error'' Trawling the production log turns up this error;

NoMethodError (undefined method `stringify_keys!'' for
"10":String):

The html wireframe has no such problem. A select box is used to submit 
the data
in the style of.

rating[rating]

Here is the ''def'' in the controller;

 def rate
  	dream = User.find(params[:id])
  	rating = Rating.new(params[:rating])

  	# Create or Update rating cookie
  	if !cookies[:rating]
  	  cookies[:rating] = { :value => User.sha1(@request.remote_ip + 
Time.now.to_s), :expires => Time.now + 31449600}
  	else
  	  cookies[:rating] = { :value => cookies[:rating], :expires => 
Time.now + 31449600}
  	end
  	rating.cookie = cookies[:rating]
  	dream.ratings << rating
    if dream.update
      flash[:notice] = ''Rating was added to this dream.''
      redirect_to :action => ''show'', :id => dream
    else
      render :action => ''show''
    end
  end

Is there something wrong with submiting a post variable called
''rating''
in this way is there another method that im missing?

Thanks in advance.

Which line is the error on, and what does your param hash look like?
