It looks like you're generally going in the right direction. However, you're setting @spares twice, so your view will only see the results of the second #find. It's not really clear to me what effect you're going for here. I also recommend using named_scope for the "on order" items, if you're using Rails 2.1 or above. They're a bad-ass way to encapsulate common filters on your objects. http://ryandaigle.com/articles/2008/3/24/what-s-new-in-edge-rails-has-finder-functionality -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
