My example is an attempt to change selects to radio buttons in "the
rapid rails 3 with hobo" draft.
This would go on the recipes form (child) to select the country
(parent).
The models are
recipe:
fields do
title :string
body :text
timestamps
end
belongs_to :country
validates_presence_of :country
country:
fields do
name :string
timestamps
end
has_many :recipes
children :recipes
thanks for your help
