Hey folks,
I'm having major issues trying to complete a simple task.
Goal: Create a drop-down list and populate it with states. When the user fills out the form and saves, the state selected should be saved with the record.
Problem: When trying to save the record I get the following error:
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it! You might have expected an instance of Array. The error occured while evaluating nil.inject
And it points to this line in my .rthml:
<%= select_tag 'state', options_for_select(@states) %>
And here is my controller code in the 'new' method:
def new @client = Client.new @states = %w{-select- AL AK AZ AR CA CO CT DE DC FL GA HI ID IL IN IA KS KY LA ME MH MD MA MI MN MS MO MT NE NV NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC SD TN TX UT VT VI VA WA WV WI WY} end
The list populates fine with states, but bombs when I try to save. Please help.
Thanks.
