I am trying to load an ActiveRecord object from an ID within a hidden
field in a submitted form. How do I do it?
I get this into the controller with the request:
Parameters: {"action"=>"index",
"website"=>{"id"=>"7"},
"controller"=>"msa/setup"}
So, how do I load the Website object from ID 7?
@website = Website.new(params[:website])
@website.reload()
That fails, and this is a crappy way to do it anyway.
Website.find(params[:website[:id]])
fails as well. How do I get to that ID?
