If I try to pass an User instance, the select isn't displayed. Here's the view now:
<%= form_for @user,:url => users_path,:method => :post do |f| %> <%= f.fields_for :city do |b| %> <%= b.collection_select :id,City.all,:id,:name %> <% end %> <div class="field"> <%= f.label :name %><br /> <%= f.text_field :name %> </div> <div class="actions"> <%= f.submit %> </div> <% end %> I guess it's expecting me to build the city instance in the controller? The way I got it to work is by doing this in my model: def city_attributes=(attribs) self.city = City.find(attribs[:id]) end Is there no other way? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
