I''m assuming the problem happens when creating new records. Can we see the new and create actions in your controller and the full form in the view? Also, are there any before/after/around filters and/or callbacks that could be affecting the behavior of the application?

Then use ruby-debug to break into your code in the controller action (create or update presumably) and you can inspect the data to work out where it is getting lost. See the Rails Guide on debugging to find how to do that. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

This could be that you are trying to assign attributes that are protected from mass assignment. Try adding: attr_accessible :category_id ..to your article model. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
