Noob alert! Hi, I am having trouble figuring out how to filter a select helper. The following shows all of the rows in the table but I would like to filter the collection from the list_name column (:list_name => "Project Status"): @project_status = Valuelist.all.collect {|s| [s.list_value,s.id]} Thanks in advance, James -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I think it would be worth while working through some tutorials such as railstutorial.org, which is free to use online, to get the basics of rails.

Thanks Colin, worked a treat! I have am going through a the railstutorial.org tutorial atm and have been through some others. To date none had dealt with my situation even though it was ''obvious''. Too much learning after my day job.
