you need to implement a smarter solution here by your self. EG using unique IDs, so that one could not load a deleted object by a (wrong) ID. Another would be to implement something like optimistic locking, see here: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Locking/Optimistic.html (no, there is no need to use ActiveRecord for that. Can be done with anything you are using in the back-end). But basically your application (design) has to take care of this. -Matthias > > > > Thanks. > > > > Leon Dorfling > Pepkor IT > email : le...@pepkoritcom > tel : (021) 937 9225 > fax : (021) 937 9213 > cell : 083 6789 270 > > > > Pep a division of Pepkor Retail Limited.The legal status of this > communication is governed by the terms and conditions > published at http://www.pepstores.com/cms/view/content/email_disclaimer, > which terms and conditions relate,inter alia, to confidentiality and > limitation of liability and include the names of directors and the > registration number of the company. -- Matthias Wessendorf blog: http://matthiaswessendorf.wordpress.com/ sessions: http://www.slideshare.net/mwessendorf twitter: http://twitter.com/mwessendorf
