Did you set this up as a "has and belongs to many" relationship? class Food > ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :restaurants ... end class Restaurant > ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :foods ... end If you declared that in your food and restaurant models, and renamed that join table as foods_restaurants, you would get the join for "free", just by loading the relationship in your controller: @restaurant = Restaurant.find(params[:id]) @foods = Food.where(:foo => 'bar') @restaurant.foods = @foods when you save @restaurant, a new set of records will be created in foods_restaurants, keying that particular restaurant to those N foods. > This table have 2 columns: "id_food" and "id_restaurant" These have to be named food_id and restaurant_id Walter > > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
