It is not exactly undefined, but has the value nil. Have a look at the Rails Guide on debugging then, using ruby-debug, break into the code at the appropriate point and inspect the variables to find out what is going on. That will generally be much quicker than waiting for someone to analyse your code to work out what is wrong. Good luck Colin
