multiple fields_for, same model

I have three fields_for inside a form_tag.

http://pastie.org/218918

Two of them, correspond to the same model, :customer, (the two objects, billing_customer and shipping_customer have been built in the controller method). When I submit the form, the parameters only include one of the two fields_for methods and it comes through as the model name, not the object name:

"customer"=>{...}

I know there is a way to use two fields_for sections that correspond to the same model... what am I doing wrong here?

Nik can you update mentioned URL with field names as well

try using following: <% fields_for :shipping_customer do |sc| %>   <%= sc.text_field%>         <% end %>

        <% fields_for :billing do |bi| %>   ...<%= b.text_field%>         <% end %> <!-- end billing_fields -->

  <% fields_for :billing_customer do |bc| %>   ....<%= bc.text_field%>   <% end %>

MOdel:

ShippingCustomer.new(params[:shipping_customer]) Billing.new(params[:billing) ShippingCustomer.new(params[:billing_customer)

I am using something like this and it is working for me.

let me know
