Just another question that may help me better understand habtm workings...
Would it be true that in order to create a fully functional habtm record that both models using the habtm assoc. need to be updated and saved? Or is it possible to do having a fully working relationship by saving only one of the two? Thanks On Mar 18, 10:04 am, elliottg <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the input.
