    <p>I have a form for creating/editing an event. There is a Client drop down which renders some custom questions and answers dependent on the selected Client.</p> <p>I'm running Rails 2.3.9 with Ruby 1.8.6 and Mongrel on Windows. Here is the relevant code:</p> <p>Event form</p> <pre><code>- form_for @event do |f| .... = f.collection_select(:client_id, Client.all, :id, :name) #custom_client_fields = render 'client_fields' if @client = observe_field :event_client_id, :url =&gt; {:action =&gt; 'client_fields'}, :with =&gt; "'client_id=' + encodeURIComponent(value)" .... </code></pre> <p>_client_fields.html.haml</p> <pre><code>- fields_for "event[client_attributes]", @client do |client| - client.fields_for :questions do |question| %label.question= question.object.content - question.fields_for :answers, Answer.new do |answer| = answer.text_field:content, :maxlength =&gt; 150, :size =&gt; 40 </code></pre> <p>Event Controller</p> <pre><code>def client_fields if params[:client_id].blank? render_no_client_fields #self explanatory else respond_to do |format| format.js { render :update do |page| page[:custom_client_fields].replace_html :partial =&gt; 'client_fields', :layout =&gt; false end } end end end </code></pre> <p>Parameter hash</p> <pre><code>Parameters: { "event"=&gt;{ "id"=&gt;"2", "client_attributes"=&gt;{ "questions_attributes"=&gt;{ "0"=&gt;{ "id"=&gt;"4", "answers_attributes"=&gt;{ "0"=&gt;{ "content"=&gt;"fjhkghjkk" } } } } } } } </code></pre> <p>Basically the form passes the validations and everything except the nested attributes. Nothing is inserted into the database table.</p> <p>Looking at the parameter hash my client_attributes doesn't have an id... hmmm...</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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
