Hello, Thanks for all the replies. I've used this format before in .Net using a datagrid, but I'm tring to apply it to RoR. Fred, if the issue is repeated parameter in a single form, am I best off attempting to add 'fields_for' to the form, or is there a way to make every row iterate on multiple forms, like placing @item.each do outside the form (I would assume this would not work.) Thanks Colin, once I get a functional page, I'll validate it.
