    <p>This is the last remaining item to complete my first rails app and need some help. On each user profile (localhost:3000/users/username), there's a listing of posts that the user has made. Associated with each post are comments. So post_id: 3 could have comments. </p> <p>I have it working already in view form but I need the comments to appear in a popup instead when the "Comments" link under each post is clicked. I have already applied facebox which is a jQuery-based lightbox that displays popups. </p> <p>I just need to move what's currently shown in show.html.erb into a popup. </p> <p>There's the _comment_form.html.erb which renders into _post.html.erb</p> <pre><code> &lt;%= link_to #, :rel =&gt; "facebox-#{post.id}" do %&gt; +&lt;%= post.comments.count.to_s %&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;div class ="ItemComments"&gt;&lt;% if post.comments.exists? %&gt; &lt;% post.comments.each do |comment| %&gt; &lt;%= image_tag("http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id=#{Digest::MD5::hexdigest(comment.user.email)}" %&gt; &lt;span class="users"&gt;&lt;%= link_to comment.user.name, comment.user %&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="timestamp"&gt;&lt;%= time_ago_in_words(comment.created_at) %&gt; ago&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="content2"&gt;&lt;%= comment.comment_content %&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;% end %&gt;&lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p>The above renders into _post.html.erb using:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%= render 'shared/comment_form', post: post if signed_in?%&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then it renders into show.html.erb</p> <p>I'm trying to use this line, but what do I link it to?</p> <pre><code> &lt;%= link_to #, :rel =&gt; "facebox-#{post.id}" do %&gt; +&lt;%= post.comments.count.to_s %&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; </code></pre> <p>This is shared/_comment.html.erb</p> <pre><code>&lt;% if post.comments.exists? %&gt; &lt;% post.comments.each do |comment| %&gt; &lt;%= image_tag("http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar") %&gt; &lt;%= link_to comment.user.name, comment.user %&gt; &lt;span class="timestamp"&gt;&lt;%= time_ago_in_words(comment.created_at) %&gt; ago&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="content2"&gt;&lt;%= comment.comment_content %&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; </code></pre>

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.
