Sounds like the hard part is done, now it's just coding... So, where does ...info/ go to? You'll need a view for that (info.html.erb?), and you'll have to get there somehow (think routes) via some controller (which to use... or create?) The list of book titles for 'Who Bought' smells an awful lot like a generic book 'index' view, with maybe a twist on the rendering in the erb. If a book knows who bought it, listing the people who bought a book smells like an adaptation of a book 'show' view. Just get that info page working, then extend from there. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
