Rails - Jan 2006 - Simple question about :list method in scaffolds

The automatically generated scaffolds made code like this:

 def list
    @address_pages, @addresses = paginate :addresses, :per_page => 10
  end

which was fine, but I only want to return the logged-in user''s 
addresses. So I changed it to:

 def list
    @address_pages, @addresses = paginate :addresses, :per_page => 10, 
:conditions => [''user_id = ?'',
@session[''user''].id]
  end

Is this the right way to do it, or am I missing something?

Thanks,

-elan

Assuming your table is set up with a user_id column for the addresses, 
it should work fine.  Just make sure the user_id column gets populated 
when records are created.
