Hello all This is my first post so excuse the basic question. (and any repeats I just got an email saying this post was too big so I have re-submitted a smaller version) I was following the thread on http://lists.rubyonrails.org/pipermail/rails/2006-May/038988.html regarding the STI on HABTM for RoR. I have a very similar problem and was hoping for some help. I have the

I''ve just been bodyslammed by a problem with has_and_belongs_to_many - as far as I can tell, if it doesn''t appear at the top of other relationship definitions it doesn''t seem to work right. For example: class Artist < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :genres has_many :albums has_many :videos has_many :cds has_many :collections end ..works fine

Hi there, I have a question on what would be the best way to save a HABTM model. A posting habtm categories, and a category habtm postings. class Category < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :postings end class Posting < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :categories end In my blog_controller, where the actual posting is saved, is where I think I''m

Hello, Is it possible to have several HABTM-relationships for the same object? Example: Imagine I have 3 objects (classroom, student, teacher) and define the associations for the student as: class Student < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :classrooms has_and_belongs_to_many :teachers class Classroom < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :students class Teacher <

I need to have a table related to itself via a join table. Will HABTM support this? That is: class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :recipes, :join_table => "recipes_recipes" end More importantly -- how does RoR support MULTIPLE self-joins? I.e., to relate the table to itself via multiple join tables. SFAIK, HABTM won''t support multiple

This has me scratching my head: a Person has many Things a Person has many Collections a Collection has many Things ...Things in a Collection are ordered ...Things in a Collection can be related to (created by) any User ...a collection has additional attributes, such as a name etc I am confused about habtm in rails (especially when using acts_as_habtm_list) vs. going the :through route.

I have two tables that have a HABTM relationship: Teacher has_and_belongs_to_many Groups, and Group has_and_belongs_to_many Teachers. This is what I want: select a Teacher, and then drag Groups from one box to another to assign them to the teacher. Or, select a group, and drag and drop Teachers to assign them to groups. All using AJAX, (off course). Only problem is, I don''t know

Hi, I posted yesterday asking how to get form tags to reference the associated objects in a habtm relationship. I was hoping for Rails Magic, but it looks like Rails doesn''t have habtm magic beyond a certain point. Here was my solution for others who might have the problem. Also, I hope someone shows me that there is a simpler way. The Database Model: class Registration <

Hi, I am trying to perform a query with ActiveRecord that I want to put into a Rails application later. For now I just wrote it within a plain old Ruby script for easier testing.

Where do I put this code? Which callback (and on which model) will be triggered? Any
