The only case I come across after changing to_param is when I pass params[:id] (= "123-foo-bar") into find_by_id and forget to call to_i on it. find() by itself will do the right thing, but find_by_id won't. Not a big deal though. -philip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
