Thanks @Marnen. I think my issue was solved by the simple example here: http://vhochstein.wordpress.com/2010/08/28/setupactivescaffoldrails3/#comments
What I was trying to do with partials is that I have an "items" and "itemdetails" tables, and "items" "has_many" "itemdetails", and wanted the "itemdetails" to be AT THE SAME page of the "item", since for each item, there are different "itemdetails". And, my issue was solved when I inserted a column in "itemdetails", namley, "item" and gave it the type "references" as follows: item:references I think it acts like a foreign key, and is the same as saying: item_id:integer in ordinary Rails, doesn't it? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
