Hi,
I want to display a list of links grouped by category like this:
Group 1
Link 1
Link 2
Group 2
Link 1
Link 2
I have this in my controller:
def index
@links = Link.find(:all, :order => “category_id”)
end
And this in the view:
Can somebody give my some pointers how to achieve this?
Thanks!

What a coinsidence. I just set up a similar link section yesterday.

I’m very new to Rails so there it is very likely that there is a better
way
to do this. But, the way I did it was:
In my Link controller:
def list
@categories = LinkCategory.find(:all, :order => 'name')
end
And in my list.rhtml view something along the lines of:
<% for category in @categories -%>
<h2><%= h(category.name) %></h2>
<% for link in category.links -%>
<p><%= link_to h(link.name), link.url %></p>
<% end -%>
<% end -%>
