fields_for is a devil to understand, with and without a parent/data form. You need to really study the Rails documentation a lot, create scenarios from your data.... Before you try fields_for you should test at 'rails console' for certainty that your associations are productive. Be certain of your data before testing because association testing in true null/empty is pretty nondescript... If you are bold, go to GitHub, and search to Rails applications and then fields_for....
Best to you. Liz PS: Write to Colin Law, he is a wealth of information regarding tutorials...
