Is there a way to use accepts_nested_attributes_for to update another table from within a controller. For example, I have this in my students controller:
def student_fail @student = Subject.find(params[:id]) if params[:id] @student.build_student_fail end def student_fail_finalize if @student.update_attributes params[:student] @subject.save end end I have this model relationship: Student has_one :student_fail accepts_nested_attributes_for :student_fail, :allow_destroy => true StudentFail belongs_to :student_fail_state belongs_to :student StudentFailState has_many :students, :through => :student_fail has_many :student_fails >From the students controller, when the user fills out a form, I just want to update that information to the student_fail table. Can I achieve this through the controller using accepts_nested_attributes_for? I don't want to add anything to the view that indicates the other model. I'm hoping to do it directly in the controller. Thanks for any suggestions. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
