Help, I'm trying to pass a course_id from a collection_select and can't figure out how to do it.
If I hard-code my method: def move_stu Enrollment.update_all(["course_id = ?", "12" ], :student_id => params [:student_ids]) ## end It works perfectly. The enrollment updates the student's course_id to 12. Instead of hard-coding it, I'd like users to be able to select the course they want to move the student to. My collection_select looks like this (and I don't get any errors): <%= collection_select(:student, :course_id, current_user.courses, :id, :name, :include_blank => true) %> BUT I haven't been able to pass :id to the move_stu method. I've tried this: def move_stu Enrollment.update_all(["course_id = ?", id ], :student_id => params [:student_ids]) ## end but all that passes in is a random 8 digit id from ??? (not the :id from the collection_select) Any ideas??? thank you in advance! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
