typically you do something like if Foo.create(params[...]) #handle success else render ... #re render the form used to submit the object end If you do this the object that failed validation is still around, so you can prefill edit fields and so on with what the user has just tried and either display the errors yourself or use error_messages_for / f.error_messages Fred -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
