Hi there, my problem is kind of difficult to explain but maybe simple to answer: I have a model (book) with author:string, title:string, id:integer and so on. If I do a query @book = Book.find(:id => 123) the result is an instance of book. Now I want to iterate through the key/value pairs of this instance, but as it is not a hash methods like "each" don''t work. Example: <% @book.each do |k,v|%> <tr> <td><%= k %></td> <td><%= v %></td> </tr> <% end %> Can anyone please point me to the right direction?

Having said that, I''d recommend you take a look through the public methods for your instance variable (I''ve never used MongoDB). There''s probably an equivalent to ''attribute_names'' which returns an array of all column names in an AR model. If you were using AR you could iterate through the array for the ''keys'' and use @book[''k''] for the values.
