sure,

if you wanted to name it ":company_id=>@company.id"
then in the routes file you would have to do


 map.connect ':controller/:action/:company_id'


or else it will interpet as one cgi query parameter

[Rails] Re: Silly little link_to question

2010-06-22 Thread Agoofin
What do you have in your by_company method?

looks like you had in your find statement - params[:id] and it should
have been params[:company_id]

You might take a look at generating a class method in your model file:

def self.by_company( anId )
   find(:all, :conditions => ["company_id = ?", anId] )
end

The you can refer to this by Model_name.by_company( x )

Or a named scope - some things to look at.

Hope this helps

[Rails] Re: Silly little link_to question

2010-06-22 Thread richardsugg
Well, I got around it, but I'd like to know why the original way
didn't work because I'm certain this will come up again.  Here's what
I did:

I changed the link_to to be

<%= link_to "people",:controller => "people",  :action =>
"by_company",  :id => @company.id %>

which created the link

http://my-server-name/people/by_company/1

Thanks for looking at this.  I'm sure this is a very easy question for
someone who has done this a while, but that would not (yet) be me :)
