Unrelated, but in the name of all that is holy don't do this. Look into the 'serialize' method: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#method-c-serialize for a cleaner, faster, safer way to stash whole data structures in the DB. --Matt Jones PS: Also, Query.find(params[:id]) is a good bit more understandable than doing a where and then getting the first element. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
