I suspect SQL something like select * from categories, companies where category.id

I have two models: A "Posting" has_many "Categories", and a "Category" belongs_to one "Posting". With that said, in the posting model I have "has_many :categories" and within the

I''m working on a simple CMS. The main data type are "listings" a listing habtm (has_and_belongs_to_many) categories and subcategories. Subcategories belong_to categories. Subcategories are basically the same as categories, but they are treated differently in a few situations. The problem is, I can''t seem to write the view/controller/model code that allows me to

Hi all, I am a newbie to Rails. Please enlighten me on how to do this appropriately, the Rails and the Ruby way: Suppose I have a Recipe model. Let''s simplify things and pretend that it has only 2 attributes, a :name and the other is a ''category_id''. In the recipes table, category_id is a foreign key to field id of table categories. We also assume that I have generate

People, I can order categories when looking at the categories list page but how do I change the recipe page to list the categories in alpha order in the recipe pull-down box?: > <p><b>Category:</b><br> > <select name="recipe[category_id]"> > <% @categories.each do |category| %> > <option value="<%= category.id

I''ve got a model, "category" and another model "subcategory." Each subcategory belongs_to a category, and a category has_many subcategories.

Hi This looks like a bug in ActiveRecord. I am messing with eager loading (on 12.1) and all of a sudden records started disappearing from a table (and I am not doing anything delete related)!! The following line works OK:- @todos = Todo.find(:all, :include => [ :whens],:order => "position ASC") The following line is mysteriously deleteing :where rows from the DB after
