I have a class photo. It belongs_to a project. In my ProjectsController I am creating 2 instance variables:
@displayphoto = Photo.find_by_project_id(params[:id]) ...and also @photo = @project.build_photo The @displayphoto instance returns a nil object. However, @photo = Photo.find_by_project_id(params[:id]) works fine. So evidently it is the name @displayphoto that is causing the problem. So I have 2 questions: 1) Must an instance variable always be the same name as the name of the class? 2) If the above is true, how can I create 2 separate instance variables in my controller for the same class? Thanks, Jet
