Re: Help with error messages

[and...@benjamin.dk]

can you show us the piece of code you using to handle the success case?

flash is an hash with very useful entries:

inside your controller you should be doing something like:

flash[:error] = object.errors

or something like that if you pass us your controller code it would be easier to help you and what is that you doing  on the case of no success.

Hiall,

Please bear with me as I am new to rails.

I have the following problem:

I have 2 models, Client and Product. Product is dependent, and as such, within the Client show view I created a Product creation form, to create products that belong to a client. After successful or unsuccessful creation I return to the Client show view. There I wanted to show any errors if the creation went wrong, but I can't seem to be able to access the @product I used when trying to create the Product instance, to get to its errors. Do I have to pass that @product when redirecting to client_path(client)? And if so, how?

BTW, success works, as I use flash to show that, but with the errors I did want to show them in a different position, above the form. If nothing else works, I guess I should pass the errors to flash, but I don't know how to do that either.
