Rails - Mar 2006 - Select from Many to Many

Here is what I have:

 

add_core_content.rhtml:

<select id="resource_core_content_ids"
name="resource[core_content_ids][]" size="15"
style="width: 200px;"
multiple="multiple">

<% @core_contents.each do |c| %>

    <option value="<%= c.id %>" <% if
@resource.core_contents.include?
(c) %> selected="selected"<% end %>>

       <%= c.code %>

    </option>

<% end %>

</select>

<br/>

 

admin_controller.rb:

def add_core_content

    @core_contents =
CoreContent.find_all_by_subject(@params["subject"],
:order => ''level ASC'')

end

 

Everything works fine if I don''t have:

<% if @resource.core_contents.include? (c) %>
selected="selected"<% end
%>

 

But when that is included I get an error:

 

You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it!
The error occured while evaluating nil.core_contents

Extracted source (around line #3): 

1: <select id="resource_core_content_ids"
name="resource[core_content_ids][]" size="15"
style="width: 200px;"
multiple="multiple">
2: <% @core_contents.each do |c| %>
3:     <option value="<%= c.id %>" <% if
@resource.core_contents.include? (c) %> selected="selected"<%
end %>>
4:        <%= c.code %>
5:     </option>
6: <% end %>

 

My many-to-many is core_contents_resources any my models are set up
correctly (having the habtm in both models).  I know that I am getting
something with @resource.core_contents because I get information
returned (albeit unreadable,
#<CoreContent:0x3321598>#<CoreContent:0x3321550>#<CoreContent:0x3321508>
#<CoreContent:0x33214c0>) 

 

Thanks,

Seth
