I've solved the issue, but it sure seems like a hack. Hopefully someone can help with a more elegant approach. It seems like I'm missing something simple, all I need to do is display a name.
<%= form_for @physician do |f| %> <p> <%= f.label :name %><br /> <%= f.text_field :name %> </p> <hr> <h3>Patient appointments:</h3> <table> <tr><th>Patient Name</th><th>Appointment Date</th><th></th></tr> *<% appt_index = 0 %>* <%= f.fields_for :appointments do |appointment| %> <tr> <td> *<%= @physician.appointments[appt_index].patient.name %> * </td> <td> %= appointment.text_field :appointment_date %> </td> </tr> *<% appt_index = appt_index + 1 %>* <% end %> </table> <hr> <p><%= f.submit %></p> <% end %> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
