Rails - Jun 2008 - Filter Results via Post

Hi guys,

I''m trying to filter my record results by submitting a post value via
select field with filter results. It works when the results are
active, but otherwise it returns a nil object error.

Here is my code: http://pastie.org/211299

Thanks,

Levi

You call params[:vendor][:id] without checking the value of 
params[:vendor].  What if params[:vendor] is nil, as is the case when 
it isn''t passed? :-)

You''ll probably find it more natural to work with the passed parameters
if you call the form input vendor_id instead of vendor[id].

Ciao,
Sheldon.
