Help with output

I am having problems trying to get the output to work in an
application I have. Here is the example

THIS GIVES ME THE CORRECT VALUES
 <!-- ######## Flooring ######### -->
                  <% if(params[:flooring]) %>
                    <tr><td
colspan="4"><h2>Flooring</h2></td></tr>
                    <% for company in @companies %>
                          <% if(company.flooring == 1)
%>
                        <tr>
                          <td><%= link_to  company.name, company
%></
td>
                          <!--" +
image_tag(''view2.gif'', :border =>
''0'') + "-->
 
<% if session[:user_id] %>
                            <td><%= link_to  "[old view]",
:controller
=> "companies", :action=> "show_org", :id =>
company.id %></td>
                            <td><%= link_to "[edit]",
edit_company_path(company) %></td>
                            <td><%= link_to "[delete]",
company, :confirm => ''Are you sure?'', :method => :delete
%></td>
                          <% end %>
                  <% end %>
                      </tr>
                    <% end %>
                  <% end %>

THIS GIVES ME "#" INSTEAD OF THE CORRECT OUTPUT
<!-- ######## Outdoor ######### -->
                  <% if(params[:outdoor]) %>
                    <tr><td
colspan="4"><h2>Outdoor</h2></td></tr>
                    <% for company in @companies %>

                      <%=h company.outdoor_wood_based_products %>
                          <% if(company.outdoor_wood_based_products =1 ||
company.outdoor_non_wood_based_products == 1) %>
                        <tr>
                          <td><%= link_to  company.name, company
%></
td>
                          <!--" +
image_tag(''view2.gif'', :border =>
''0'') + "-->
                            <% if session[:user_id] %>
                            <td><%= link_to  "[old view]",
:controller
=> "companies", :action=> "show_org", :id =>
company.id %></td>
                            <td><%= link_to "[edit]",
edit_company_path(company) %></td>
                            <td><%= link_to "[delete]",
company, :confirm => ''Are you sure?'', :method => :delete
%></td>
                          <% end %>
                  <% end %>
                      </tr>
                    <% end %>
                  <% end %>

could it be something in a model or controller

Re: Help with output

I''m guessing company.wood_based_products is an object or array or
something other than a string?

If you see "#" on your page check the page source and see if
there''s
more there, like #<Company: id: 1223...>,
with everything in brackets hidden because it''s treated as an xml tag.

If that''s the case it should help you figure out what your problem is,
probably trying to
output something that isn''t a string.

Re: Help with output

company.wood_based_products is a field in the database that holds
either a 1 or a 0.

Re: Help with output

Well without , obviously you''re outputting an OutdoorWoodBasedProduct
model somewhere repeatedly,
or a collection of them -- my guess is <%=h
company.outdoor_wood_based_products %>.

If that really is 1 or 0, then I don''t know if I can help.

Do you have both a field and an association by the same name?

If you go into script/console, what is the output for:

Company.find(:first).outdoor_wood_based_products

Re: Help with output

What do you mean by a "field and an association by the same name"

I have a company table in my DB with a field called
outdoor_wood_based_products

not sure I have a script console. I am new to this as you can tell and
I am running Netbeans 6 with ruby as a plugin

Re: Help with output

By a "field and an association by the same name" I mean do you have a
field in your database table named
''outdoor_wood_based_products'' as
well as an association in your model ("has_many",
"has_and_belongs_to_many", etc) that is also called
''outdoor_wood_based_products''.

In a console window (cmd if you''re on Windows, or terminal if
you''re
on UNIX/Mac), navigate to your base Rails project directory (c:/
myproject),
and type "ruby script/console". That gives you an interactive ruby
session with all the same
libraries loaded as your webserver would see. That way you can create
objects, call methods etc interactively through ruby
without going through the browser.

Try that (it''s an indispensable tool as you''re developing),

Also paste in your Company.rb model so I can see what''s going on, as
well as the companies database schema definition.

Re: Help with output

Yup. You''ve defined a "has_many" association called
"outdoor_wood_based_products" and you also have a database column by
the same name. Can''t have both -- they do different things.

You don''t need a ruby directory in your application directory. All you
need is ruby to be in your execution path. I''d imaging NetBeans also
has a "console" button, but I don''t have it in front of me.

Anyway, that''s you''re problem. Calling two distinct things by
the same
name.

Re: Help with output

Man I thank you a million. I spent the last 4 hours working on this

I just tried you suggestion and it worked great. Thank you so much for
spending the time with me. I am a newbie and having someone around
like you is a life saver.

It would be great to be able to contact you if I had any more
questions. Would you mind.
