There is usually no need to ask for the products to include the category. If, for example, you say @products = Product.where some_condition then in your template (or in the controller) you can use code such as @products.first.category even though you have not specifically used .includes in the query. Rails will fetch the category later if it is needed. Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
