Hello, I have a roles table, permissions table and a rights join table. I have has_many :through relationships between the two tables. Roles Permissions Rights table id name id name role_id permission_id 1 User 1 posts/new 1 2 2 Admin 2 posts/create 2 2 In the admin side of the app I create new roles and permissions. But I wanted to be able to assign values to the rights table in an easy way, so I created a rights controller and a view to show the current values and assign new permission to certain roles via checkboxes. Permissions User Admin posts/new <checkbox> <checkbox> posts/edit <checkbox> <checkbox> posts/destroy <checkbox> <checkbox> posts/create <checkbox checked> <checkbox checked> I have some code on my view where I save the permission_ids selected onto a hash, but I''ll like to save the roles_ids too. How can I post both of them to save them later on the controller in the rights table? The problem that I have is that I can post a hash of permission_ids, but I also need the role_ids hash. The examples I have looked at only need to post one hash and the other value needed to fill the join table is the current_user id. In this case I need permission and role ids. Any ideas on how to post this values into the controller? Portion of my view <% for permission in Permission.find(:all, :order => "name ASC") %> <tr class=<%= cycle(''even'',''odd'') %>> <td><%=h permission.name %></td> <% for role in Role.find(:all) %> <td><%= check_box_tag "right[permission_ids][]", permission.id, permission.roles.include?(role) %></td> <% end %> </tr> <% end %> Thanks!
