I''m using the will_paginate plugin as well as has_many_polymorphs. I use the following code to get a list of all of my "Item" objects which have a specific tag: tagged = Tag.find_by_name(@search_term).items I can then call paginate on it to make a paginator out of the collection in tagged: @results = tagged.paginate(:page => 1) So far so good. The weirdness comes in when i try to do something with tagged before passing it to paginator, eg to delete any items with a given value tagged = Tag.find_by_name(@search_term).items.delete_if{ |x| x.name ="foo" } Now, the .paginate call won''t work on tagged because it won''t work on an array - it seems as if calling an array method on tagged converts it to an array. To make matters more confusing, rails *thinks* tagged is an array already: tagged = Tag.find_by_name(@search_term).items tagged.class => Array @results = tagged.paginate(:page => 1) #Works tagged = Tag.find_by_name(@search_term).items.delete_if{ |x| x.name ="foo" } tagged.class => Array @results = tagged.paginate(:page => 1) #Doesn''t work on objects of class Array! Can anyone explain this weirdness? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
