Hi, I have a model called "ProductAttribute":
class ProductAttribute < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :product has_many :children, :foreign_key => :parent_id, :class_name => 'ProductAttribute', :dependent => :destroy, :order => :position belongs_to :parent, :class_name => 'ProductAttribute' if :parent_id acts_as_list :scope => :parent end As you can see, my goal is to have an attribute with a number of children and a parent, as long as it's not a root attribute. I think I got it right, but if you see any errors in this, please do tell me. Now I want to list an entire product, with all its attributes, in a view, which is where I got stuck. I want these associations to show hierarchically, so that a child is in fact a child element ( for example a list item ) of its parent. I can get all attributes using the product_id, so I have defined a collection called @attributes in my controller. But how to proceed in the view? My guess is that I need a partial which loads itself, but how to pass along the subcollection (a child -can- have another child which can have another child and so on). It's important that it sorts every subcollection (e.g. a few children of a certain child) by position: do I have that covered in my model by :order => :position? I really hope you can help.
