Sir, i want to implement a search function. I got a code from one of the book where the objective is to find a user based on a name or any thing else.. Here 'User' is a users table.. 'Faq' is table which contains info abt the user.. n 'Personal' contains personal info abt user.. Can u please help me in understanding the following lines of code..
# Now combine into one list of distinct users sorted by last name. hits = personals + faqs
#flash[:notice] = hits.size @users.concat(hits.collect { |hit| hit.user }).uniq!
# Sort by last name (requires a personal for each user). @users.each { |user| user.personal ||= Personal.new }
@users = @users.sort_by { |user| user.personal.last_name }
i want to implement searching by tag... Thank u..
