Hi all,

I've got an issue where i have a search page that passes a field which is then 
used as the criteria of the search. Problem is, I've set an AR has_many 
relationship in the model that joins one table to another - both tables have 
the same column name I'm searching on, so naturally I get an ambiguous error in 
sql - it doesnt know which column to apply the search to.

One solution would be to append the desired table name to the field being 
passed on in search, like my_database.foo where foo was the ambiguous field. 
But this doesn't seem very Rails-ish to my newbie eyes. Is there a better, 
AR-based way to handle this issue?

Best,

Peter D Bethke
