Hello, Thanks for taking a look and offering up your help! I''m trying to set up a way my site visitor can search my site via band.name and videos.name simultaneously, for up to 10 results. The names should be searched for any and all keywords entered. I think I''m close, but my query doesn''t return any results for me, but I''m not getting any errors. Important Associations: band has_many videos while videos belongs_to bands. @search_b = search_terms.compact.join(" OR b.name LIKE ") @search_v = search_terms.compact.join(" OR v.name LIKE ") @results = Video.find_by_sql(["SELECT b.name, v.name FROM bands b, videos v WHERE b.id = v.band_id AND v.name LIKE ? OR b.name LIKE ?", @search_v , @search_b]) RoR is my first language, so if my code seems inefficient, please don''t be too harsh. ;) I''m just trying to find a way to make it work.
