Now, I know this is not correct. I resorted to doing it this way because when trying to pass category['wsc_uid_pk'] to the controller, via a param, a nil value is being passed - even though I can clearly see there is data for category['wsc_uid_pk']. I tried Andrew's suggestion for hidden field tag but to no avail... the controller was still not seeing the data. Can anyone please give me an idea of what I need to do to get this to work correctly between View - Controller - Model? Code Snippet from View: ----------------------- <% @list_web_serv_cats.each do |category| %> <tr><td height="25px" align="left" valign="top" > <%= category['wsc_description'] %></td> <!-- added back below check box for html cleanup --> <td height="25px" align="left" valign="top" style="display: inline;" ></td> <!-- service category types --> <!-- insert code here to dynamically fill the drop box from database based on category primary key --> <td height="25px" align="left" valign="top" style="display: inline;" > <!-- this works but it is not correct. i should be passing category['wsc_uid_pk'] to controller and using controller to call model... --> <%= select("wsc_uid"+category['wsc_uid_pk'].to_s, "id", Customer.list_web_serv_types(category['wsc_uid_pk']).map {|u| [u['wbt_description'], u['wbt_uid_pk']]}) %> <!-- this works but it is not correct. i should be passing category['wsc_uid_pk'] to controller and using controller to call model... --> </td> </tr> <!-- next column: service category subtypes --> <% end %> Code Snippet from Model: ------------------------ def self.list_web_serv_types(wsc_uid_pk) # should be called from customers controller ActiveRecord::Base.connection.select("SELECT gdt_number1 wbt_uid_pk, gdt_number2 wbt_web_serv_cats_uid_fk, gdt_alpha1 wbt_code, gdt_alpha2 wbt_description FROM TABLE (service_availability_web_pkg.fn_get_web_service_type(#{wsc_uid_pk}))") end Thank you, Rachel S Nichol Hargray's mission: To envision and deliver customer delight -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew Timberlake Sent: Thursday, June 18, 2009 9:45 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Rails] Re: Param in View not being set On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 3:38 PM, Rachel Nichol<[email protected]> wrote: > > Yes.
