Hello. I''ve run into a slight problem with extracint data from a table where one field matches that of the same field of another table. In my user controller I have: [CODE] def login @fname = params[:fname] @lname = params[:lname] end [/CODE] And I have this line at the top of the form in the login.rhtml file: [CODE] <%= start_form_tag :action => ''showbookings'' :id => @fname, @lname %> [/CODE] In the bookings controller I will have a def showbookings, and a corresponding showbookings.rhtml file. What I want to do is show all bookings (contents of the records) where the fname and lname column match user.fname and user.lname (from the users table). I can do it in SQL: SELECT * FROM Bookings WHERE fname = users.fname AND lname = users.lname But I''m not sure how to implement this in Rails, both as a controller method and to output the info. I appreciate the help.

Hello again, I got this far: In showbookings.rhtml [CODE] <p>Your Bookings</p> <% @user.bookings.each do |bookings| %> <%= bookings.from %> <%= bookings.to %> <%= bookings.dep_date %> <%= bookings.class %> <% end %> <p>Your Flights</p> <% @bookings.flights.each do |flights| %> <%= flights.from %> <%= flights.destination %> <%= flights.dep_time %> <%= flights.arr_time %> <%= flights.duration %> <%= flights.class %> <% end %> [/CODE] Can''t work how to link to match the fname and lname between users and bookings, and then to match from and to from bookings to flights (second ruby block).

1) fname and lname are probably not the best identifiers for logging in because of the chance for duplication. Then I have to log in as Bob Smith2 or Jane Doel337 in order to be unique. How about a unique email address? 2) I would set up your models like this (pseudocode): Users has many flights through reservations conditions "confirmed = TRUE" Reservations (or Bookings) belongs to users, flights Flight has many users through reservations conditions "confirmed = TRUE" Then it is easy to access users from flights with @flight.users or @user.flights -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
