Hi everybody,
I have paramaters like this
this is action on controller side :action => 'new', :result => session %> and this is view side test_controller/new?&&&&&result[user]=2
user controller @user = User.find(params[:result]) I coudn`t get the value with params it gives me user2 result. but I want only 2
how can I come through this problem? please help
The reason you were getting an incorrect parameter is that the method, "session", returns a hash, not a string. So calling session returns something like {:user => "2"}. When you pass a hash to the redirect method, it tries to turn it into a string using the "to_s" method on a hash, which just jams the key/value pairs together in a string:
{:user => "2"}.to_s # => "user2"
If I understand what you are trying to do, you should specify the user key in your session in your controller's redirect method:
:action => 'new', :result => session[:user]
that will redirect the browser to the URL:
test_controller/new?result=2
Good luck, Casey
