I don't see any data loss necessarily, that depends on your application. If W says all those fields are fine as they are, I trust W. I trust the last one. How do you know W is wrong a priori? The order in which the application sent the forms may be irrelevant (again, I am using "may"). If W says the state is T, let it be T. He was in particular saying that it is not S (for S != T if you allow me the detail :). It is your application who defines what's a reasonable behavior. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
