    <p>In a Ruby on Rails application I am trying to use information from fields that are not associated with the model in validation.</p> <p>Here is part of the model as an example (the whole model has gotten kinda big):</p> <pre><code>class Scorecard &lt; ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :course belongs_to :user validate :attributes_consistency def attributes_consistency # Executed for all scorecards. Checks if the user completed the hole attributes correctly if ( params[:no_fairways] and any_fairways? and !only_nine? ) or ( params[:no_fairways] and !any_h1_to_h9_score_blank and any_h1_to_h9_fairway? and only_nine? ) or ( params[:no_fairways] and !any_h10_to_h18_score_blank and any_h10_to_h18_fairway? and only_nine? ) errors.add_to_base("You inidicated that you missed all the fairways, but you also marked one or more fairways in the scorecard. Either uncheck the fairways mistakenly marked or uncheck the 'No fairways' checkbox.") end if ( params[:no_girs] and any_girs? and !only_nine? ) or ( params[:no_girs] and !any_h1_to_h9_score_blank and any_h1_to_h9_gir? and only_nine? ) or ( params[:no_girs] and !any_h10_to_h18_score_blank and any_h10_to_h18_gir? and only_nine? ) errors.add_to_base("You inidicated that you missed all the greens, but you also marked one or more greens in the scorecard. Either uncheck the marked greens on the scorecard or uncheck the 'No GIRs' checkbox.") end end # attributes_consistency def any_h1_to_h9_score_blank? h1_score.blank? or h2_score.blank? or h3_score.blank? or h4_score.blank? or h5_score.blank? or h6_score.blank? or h7_score.blank? or h8_score.blank? or h9_score.blank? end def any_h10_to_h18_score_blank? h10_score.blank? or h11_score.blank? or h12_score.blank? or h13_score.blank? or h14_score.blank? or h15_score.blank? or h16_score.blank? or h17_score.blank? or h18_score.blank? end def any_h1_to_h9_fairway? h1_fairway? or h2_fairway? or h3_fairway? or h4_fairway? or h5_fairway? or h6_fairway? or h7_fairway? or h8_fairway? or h9_fairway? end def any_h10_to_h18_fairway? h10_fairway? or h11_fairway? or h12_fairway? or h13_fairway? or h14_fairway? or h15_fairway? or h16_fairway? or h17_fairway? or h18_fairway? end def any_h1_to_h9_gir? h1_gir? or h2_gir? or h3_gir? or h4_gir? or h5_gir? or h6_gir? or h7_gir? or h8_gir? or h9_gir? end def any_h10_to_h18_gir? h10_gir? or h11_gir? or h12_gir? or h13_gir? or h14_gir? or h15_gir? or h16_gir? or h17_gir? or h18_gir? end </code></pre> <p>So how can I access <code>params</code> from the model?</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.
