Thanks Frank. I finally found this post on the forum http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/191857 that points out what you have. It is interesting that the form_for declaration in the view has to be something like follows
<% form_for @modelname do |f| %> instead of <% form_for :modelname do |f| %> Don't yet understand why this makes a difference but that is what makes the difference and posts data with nested model name appended with "attributes" as you point below. Thanks for the feedback - very much appreciated. Past that hurdle and onto the next one. -S Frederick Cheung wrote in post #965073: > On Nov 28, 10:08pm, skt <stibre...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> "chkhw"=>"1"}} >> >> "name" is a string field for filename in UploadedAttachments model (I >> am going to use that model for storing uploaded attachments but taking >> incremental steps - getting just the name for now) and >> grade_section_id is passed in so I create the model through >> ClassCalendar > > This data doesn't look like what the nested_attributes stuff looks > like - I would expected it to be more like > 'uploaded_attachments_attributes' => {{'0' => {'name' => 'Test 2'}} > > What does your form look like? > > Fred -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
