Hi ppl. I am noob in rails and started an app to learn. I have the following scenario: table client with fileds: name, second_name table phone with fields: number, client_id table address with fields: street, number, client_id The migrations worked ok and the fields are created. Now i defined in the model that for client: has_many :phones has_many :adresses for phones and adresses: belongs_to :client I made a form to get some of these fields and add to the database: <% form_for(:clients) do |f| %> <p> <b>Name</b> <%= f.text_field :name %> </p> <p> <b>Second Name</b> <%= f.text_field :second_name%> </p> <p> <b>Number</b> <%= f.text_field :number%> </p> <p> <%= f.submit "Add" %> </p> <% end %> And in the controller i try to save it to the DB: @clients = Clients.new(params[:clients]) @clients.save When i submit i get an error saying that number is not a method, it means it didnt associate number with a client. It''s not "joining" the tables. Where did i made a mistake here? Thanks guys. -- Guerra --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It''s not "joining" the tables. >The way your form is designed, rails is expecting the :number field to reside in the model you''re presenting on your form (@client), which it isn''t, it''s in an associated model. There are some good railscasts out there about "complex forms" (i.e., forms using fields from more than one model). Go forth and google grasshopper. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Like this one: http://railscasts.com/episodes/73 And just cause it caught my eye (of course after I posted that last comment): Is your table name is clients, or client? (Tables are generally plural in rails) If it''s a form for a single client, wouldn''t that be form_for(:client) do |f| an Add is usually for a single entity, and the controller would use def create @client = Client.new(params[:client]) if @client.save blah blah blah when just picking up rails, it is often easier to follow the rails mindset with regards to naming. It makes life much easier. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Hi Ar, thanks for helping :) I think im using the correct names. I watcher the cool railcasts and managed to create the form to get more than one number per user for instance. The problem is that when i check the database, it doesnt create a foreign key for the numbers i add. It simply adds null in the foreign key fields. I would like to know where i did a mistake in my relations.

Here are my 4 files. I have the clientes, cliente_telefone and cliente_endereco models. clientes has_many cliente_telefones and cliente_enderecos. and each of these (telefones and enderecos) belongs to telefone. In the controller for clientes i create a form for 3 telefones for a cliente. After i run it, the cliente_telefone data is in the DB, but with the foreign key fields with NULL. How can i make rails create it correctlly?

Just found the problem. When i created the migration, the name of the foreign key field was not in plural. Thanks anyway!
