I almost suspect that I can't do this because it hasn't yet worked for me...
My Salon model... this works... named_scope :states, :group => 'state', :select => 'state' doesn't seem to work (at least not in script/console) named_scope :salon_cities_by_state, :conditions => {:state => @state}, :group => 'city', :select => 'city' in script/console... @state = "AZ" => "AZ" Salon.states => [#<Salon state: "AZ">, #<Salon state: "CA">, #<Salon state: "CT">, #<Salon state: "NV">, #<Salon state: "NY">, #<Salon state: "TX">] Salon.salon_cities_by_state => [] But if I manually execute the 'named_scope' in script/console, it works... Salon.find(:all, :conditions => {:state => @state}, :group => 'city', :select => 'city') => [#<Salon city: "Chandler">, #<Salon city: "Flagstaff">, #<Salon city: "Glendale">, #<Salon city: "Mesa">, #<Salon city: "Phoenix">, #<Salon city: "Prescott">, #<Salon city: "Scottsdale">, #<Salon city: "Sun City">, #<Salon city: "Tempe">, #<Salon city: "Tucson">] Is there a way I can pass a param to a named_scope so I can build my dynamically array in any view for any model?
