has and belongs to many different?
...r 23 person1, books, 30 person2, books, 19 person2, books, 31 #Person 2 owns book 31 ... and so on.. 3. A number of tables for different ''things''... books - table for books chairs - table for chairs and so on... Ideally I want to have something which means "person has_and_belongs_to_many_different things" I guess it could be implemented by manually looking at the 2nd table to find the foreign key and table that it refers to and then do a find from the specific table for the specific ID. But, I''m trying to find a better "Railsy" way. Cheers Mohit.
