database relation's tying to pull data from another table

I need some newb help here. I am making a quick app to learn on to hold my collection of cards. I have a card database with a ton of fields, and also a collection table. my collection has_many cards, and cards belongs_to collection. I'm trying to list out cards in my collection, and pulling the card "title" from the "card" database. I know my relation's are setup because I can do this in other methods under my collection model, but I can't seem to do the following, which I thought would pull the "title" with the according card_id

<% @collections.each do |c| %> <li><%= c.card.title %></li>

I think I'm trying to do something the each do will not allow.

just as an fyi I can pull everything from my collection table ie: c.card_id or c.qty etc.. but trying to tap in to the other table it bawks.

Cheers

You need to add another loop for the cards:

<% @collections.each do |collection| %> <% collection.cards.each do |card| %> <li><%= card.title %></li>

Thx I figured it was something that simple
