Hello all. I've set up an inventory app and I want to be able to have the index file display ether everything in inventory or only items on order. So I want to populate @spares with the appropriate content then pass it to index.html.erb Is this the right approach? If so how do put logic into the controller to populate @spares ? Any help appreciated! ...Bill
------------spares_controller.rb def index @spares = Spare.find(:all) <--do this to see total inventory @spares = Spare.find(:all, :conditions => ["state = ?", "On Order"]) <--do this to see what's on order ... end -------------index.html.erb <% for spare in @spares %> <tr> <td><%=h spare.name %></td> <td><%=h spare.partno %></td> <td><%=h spare.state %></td> ... </tr> <% end %> -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
