The repeat tag will take pretty much anything that's "Array-like"; you can even repeat on a hash and you'll get values in 'this' and corresponding keys in 'this_key'. The only issue with that is there's no guarantee what order the keys come out. For an example, here's a page that uses a repeat on a bare array: http://www.oab.org/jobs/job_postings In the controller, this happens: @job_postings = JobPosting.visible.jobs.group_by { |j| j.category } Then in the view I repeat on the sorted keys of the @job_postings hash, since they need to be presented in alphabetical order. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
