Did you have a look at the guides I suggested? You do not appear to be following the rails conventions. For example the order table should not have a field called order_id, it should just be id. Also the tables should be called orders and items, not order and item. You have not told me the relationships (see the guide on ActiveRecord relationships as I suggested). It is presumably something like order has_many items and item belongs_to order. If you set this up correctly then if you have an order in @order the items are automatically available in the array @order.items. Please spend a few of days working through some of the guides and trying examples from the guides. It will be time well spent.
