I am new to Ruby/InstantRails. I am using InstantRails 2.0.2 with mysql database
My application is named Area, it has two tables: people and country Table people has two columns: name and tribe Table country has two columns: location and population In the models I have: class People < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :country end class Country < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :peoples end I have country_id in the people's table. I know I can do this: <% @peoples.each do |people| %> <td><%= people.name %></td> <td><%= people.country.location %></td> // This works What I want to do is to display location on country\index.html.erb <% @countries.each do |country| %> <td><%= link_to country.location, :action => "show", :id => country.id %></td> Then when I click on 'location' as a link, I want to display the 'tribe' along side with 'population' for that 'location' on view\country\show.html <td><%=h @country.population %></td> // this works <td><%=h @country.tribe %></td> // this does not works My question is, how can I reference a column from the people's table with a country's object? I know it works the other round. Please help!
