thanks for this thread re how to filter down the number of records in a SELECT. Is there a way however to be able to modify the SORT ORDER of the pull down list? I tried putting a "order by" in the options_for_association_conditions however the SQL generated doesn't work, as it is creating a "where( xxx )" in brackets.
Any ideas how to get sorting on a field drop down list for an association working? (i.e. without having to do a full field override) tks On Aug 12, 11:48 pm, otto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thank you. Already reading.
