Rails - May 2007 - Scaffold skip "xxx_id" column in table?

All,

I have a schema which contains two columns called "category_id" and
"data_id", and "category" and "data" are two other
different tables in
the same database. When I use "Scaffold" to generate the view and
controller I found that in "_form.rhtml" there are no input field for
"category_id" and "data_id". It seems like scaffold skipped
them for
some reason.

Is it what it is suppose to be?

Thanks,
Yingqi

Yup, which is fairly obvious if you look at the actually generated  
code and look up the content_columns method <http:// 
api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#M001020>.
