Hi there,

it's an afternoon that i'm destroying my head on this, and i've decided
to ask to you all .

I've got to do some check box lists for a modified substruct version i'm
doing, right now, i'm interested to insert a list of categories of
interests into a customer sheet

i'm using the substruct plugin version, wich stays in the plugin/vendor
version.
the category.rb stays in the myapp/app/models , while the order_user.rb
stays in myapp/vendor/plugins/substruct/app/models .

this is my models

class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_and_belongs_to_many :order_users
end

class OrderUser < ActiveRecord::Base
  include CheckboxSelectable
  has_and_belongs_to_many :categories
  #many other things down below
end

this are my controller

  def updateCust
       @customer = OrderUser.find(params[:id])
       @customer.update_attributes(params[:customer])
       @customer.update_check_list(params, 'Category')

        if @customer.save
        flash[:notice] = 'Customer was successfully updated.'
        redirect_to :action => 'customers'
          else
            flash[:notice] = 'Something went wrong,please review your
data'
            redirect_to :action => 'customers'
        end
  end

and the view

 <%= checkbox_select('customer', 'categories', @categories, 'name') %>


As you can see, i'm using the Checkbox select rails plugin (
http://scoop.cheerfactory.co.uk/2007/11/05/checkbox-select-rails-plugin/
).
I've already tried the version in the railscast
(http://railscasts.com/episodes/17) but in both cases, the first time i
try to load the page, i get this error:

substruct_development.categories_order_users' doesn't exist: SELECT
`categories`.id FROM `categories`  INNER JOIN `categories_order_users`
ON `categories`.id = `categories_order_users`.category_id

, so i reload and all goes fine!ad the boxes too, they appears!

but if i try to check a box and then to save a record, i get this error:

ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch in
Admin/usersController#updateCust

Category(#18224400) expected, got Category(#18557480)

or something similar, only numbers change!

Now, AssociationTypeMismatch is when you want to cope wrong types of
data together, but this is not the case :(

what i've to do? please help me!
