Setup: Categories HABTM Tags ... and consequently Tags HABTM Categories .. join table: categories_tags.
I've got the forms setup working for both ways: Categories has a list of Tags; and Tags has a list of Categories. Unfortunately, since the way to update one or the other is to do a complete DELETE on the corresponding foreign key, then add anything that's new. So if I go and create a Category and select a bunch of Tags ... then I go into one of the Tags and edit something in there, it wipes 'em all and adds 'em (as expected), but information is lost. Now, if I add an `id` on the `categories_tags` table, then everything that needs to be is retained; however, since it's still doing a DELETE then INSERT, my `id` goes up every time I do save an edit ... thus possibly resulting in a really high `id`. So I guess there's no way around it. doh!!
