...s pop-quiz on my blog (more fun than just writing a post saying "hey did you know..."). Seeing as it''s probably of interest to more than just the three people (including my wife) that actually read my blog I figured it would be okay to announce it here. http://tinyurl.com/prxdl I''ll post my answers in a followup tomorrow (Wednesday).

I have a photographers app that requires giving access to galleries for users. in one part, I want to be able to define gallery access for a user seperate from updating any of the user info. I have this function: def edit_access @user = User.find(params[:id]) @user.galleries = Gallery.find(params[:gallery_ids]) if params[:gallery_ids] if @user.update_attributes(params[:user])

In console, I am trying to create a User but the :account_id does not come in. Console just gives me back :account_id => nil. Obviously I''m trying to set it though. Silly console... But, I can set the account_id column in my controller like so: @user = User.new(params[:user]) @user.account_id = account.id @user.save Here''s what I give to the controller: User.create :name
