Hello everyone. I trying to learn associations, but have a quick
question that shouldn''t be too hard.
I have a classifieds table that has a column category_id and I have a
categories table. I put has_many :classifieds in the Category model and
belongs_to :categories in the Classifieds model
I am trying to get the category for a classified from the view. What is
the correct way to do this? I thought it would be something like:
<% for classified in @classifieds %>
<%= classified.category.name %>
<% end %>
but obviously it isn''t working. What is the right way to do this?
Thanks!
-Bradly

I think it should be belongs_to :category in your Classified model. -- Scott Becker Electro Interactive, Inc.

Yes, the "belongs_to" part should be singular while the "has_many" part should be plural. Check this for a good example: http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html?page=5 Cheers, Daniel. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
