    <p>First off I'm a total Rails newbie (front-end guy looking to learn rails), so bear with me. </p> <p>I'm making a simple todo-ish app to help myself learn and have run into an issue. I'm assuming this is something super simple that I'm missing but here goes.</p> <p>In my app users can create a number of "process_lists" (basically a list of tasks to complete). They also create "projects". Each project has a "process_list" associated with it. Process_lists are reusable, basically a set of steps to complete a project. One process list can be used for mnay projects. I've tagged the database table for projects with a column called "process_list_id" to help with associations. This is done when the user creates a project.</p> <p>Now the code, this is whats in my projects controller:</p> <pre><code> def show @project = Project.find(params[:id]) @project_process = ProcessList.where(:id =&gt; @project.process_list_id) respond_to do |format| format.html # show.html.erb format.json { render json: @project } end </code></pre> <p>end</p> <p>And in my view:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%= @project_process.all %&gt; </code></pre> <p>^^ This works great to display the whole row like so: </p> <blockquote> <p>ProcessList id: 6, name: "Derp Derp Derp Derp ", steps: nil, description: "lasdjlsdjsadas", created_at: "2012-06-22 16:21:41", updated_at: "2012-06-22 16:21:41", step1: "sjkdfldsjf", step2: "alkdfjdlfj", step3: "lakdfjdljf", step4: "", step5: "", step6: "", step7: "", step8: "", step9: "", step10: "", step11: nil, step12: nil, step13: nil, step14: nil, step15: nil, step1_description: "klsdjfldskjf", step2_description: "sldjfldskjflsdkfjdls", step3_description: "lkdsfjdlkfjsd", step4_description: "", step5_description: "", step6_description: "", step7_description: "", step8_description: "", step9_description: "", step10_description: "", step11_description: nil, step12_description: nil, step13_description: nil, step14_description: nil, step15_description: nil></p> </blockquote> <p>Now what I want to do is display certain columns from this row. For example "step1". It seems really simple but I've tried a number of thing and googled for hours now and I can't figure it out. Any help would be great.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
