JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

What's your poison, sir?
Is anyone doing RailsRumble (railsrumble.com)? A team of four of us at my work are.

It makes the most sense to me to put that in your controller instead. So something like:
code:
def new
	@newGroup = Group.new
	@newGroup.attributes= params[:group]
	@newGroup.creator = logged_in_user.id
	@newGroup.save
end
Of course if you use update_attributes instead of attributes=, you'll want to add the creator first.

@newGroup = Group.new(params[:group]) would save a line. Not that it really matters, I guess.

Anyone know of a quick/easy way to provide 'validates_X'-style validation on non-model checks? Like if a .find comes up blank, show an error/alert, instead of having to code that exception explicitly every time?
