I have my site working fine but I do have one problem.
When updating my database via a form page I get an error of "undefined method" I know that I can updated my database because I can do it on another page but using a different method to do so (sort list with drag and drop).
It looks like that I am just missing the method "update_attributes". does anyone have an idea?
below are the controller and log file.
****************************************
********* controller *******************
****************************************
def update
if session[:project_cat].nil? then
redirect_to :action => 'index'
else
@category = Parent.find_by_cat_name(session[:project_cat])
if @category.cat_name == "branding" then
@project = @category.brandings.find(params[:id])
elsif @category.cat_name == "client_say" then
@project = @category.client_says.find(params[:id])
else
@project = @category.projects.find(params[:id])
end
if @project.update_attributes(@params[:project])
flash[:notice] = 'Project was successfully updated.'
redirect_to :action => 'show', :id => @project, :cat_name => @category.id
else
render :action => 'edit', :cat_name => @category.id
end
end
end
