I think I am observing a bug with the total_pages count returned from my will_paginate collection. Or, is there some other page count I can use that is more reliable? I have a paginated list with a search box that is used to filter the list. The search string generates a :conditions clause that is used to narrow the list. My problem is that the paginate collection.total_pages count is incoreect. It reflects the size of the collection before the :conditions. Here is the code: args = { :page => params[:page], :per_page => 10, :order => "id desc" } if params[:file_filter] args[:conditions] = ["file_fullpath LIKE ?", "%#{params[:file_filter]}%"] end @files = @job.files.paginate(args) The really annoying thing is the will_paginate view helper knows the truth and generates the page number links correctly. Looking at the code it appears that the link renderer is using total_pages. But when I access it from my code it returns the too-large value. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
