Hello, I am trying to create in the main Layout of the application fields of selection of fields of the model, and other to insert its value. Next I put a search button, with the idea to leak by the search in the view of the model where it executes this button. I have generated the views with ajaxscaffold. I do not know if what I try to do it does of this form or another one. My code is the following one: - Main Layout application.rhtml: <div id="msg_search" class=''<%=@srch_class%>''> <%= form_tag :action => ''buscar'' %> <p align="center"> <%=_(''B?squeda en el campo:'')%> <select name="search_field"> <%= options_for_select(@campostabla, @params[:search_field]) %> </select> <label for="search_value"><%=_(''igual a:'')%></label> <input type="text" name="search_value" value="<%=@search_value%>" size=''16'' id=''search_value''/> <%= submit_tag(_(''Buscar''), :name=>''op'')%> <%= end_form_tag %> </p> </div> - Code in the controller Empresas_Controller.rb: def list @campostabla = Empresa.column_names #Para el campo b?squeda end # Para el bot?n buscar (Search Button) def buscar @search_field = @params[''search_field''] @search_value = @params[''search_value''] Empresa.find(:all, :conditions => ["? = ?", @search_field, @search_value]) render_action ''list'' end - When pressing the button search (Buscar), gives the following error me: NoMethodError in Empresas#buscar Showing app/views/layouts/application.rhtml where line #266 raised: You have a nil object when you didn''t expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occured while evaluating nil.inject Extracted source (around line #266): 263: <p align="center"> 264: <%=_(''B?squeda en el campo:'')%> 265: <select name="search_field"> 266: <%= options_for_select(@campostabla, @params[:search_field]) %> 267: </select> 268: <label for="search_value"><%=_(''igual a:'')%></label> 269: <input type="text" name="search_value" value="<%=@search_value%>" size=''16'' id=''search_value''/> RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/..
