What's "NewScript" got to do with it? You may be on *almost* the right track though. Assuming you get to views/scripts/new.html.erb by clicking on something associated with a video, you can set the new script object's video_id in the controller, and add a hidden field to hold it (for submission to create). > @script.video = Video.where(:video_id) That where-clause isn't going to work. It's just saying "where there's a valid video_id". Maybe you mean where :video_id => video.id (if there is a variable called video), or maybe video_id. Anyway, more direct would be simply "@script.video_id = video_id". No searching needed. Assuming of course that you already have the video_id. BTW, do you know the definition of "Where Clause"?
