The main functionality of my app is the followiing:

Enter search criteria \> show results\> edit one of the results \> back to  
results

i need to get back to the results from my initial query but when i  
select back from a single record I have edited it takes me back to  
entire list( not the list returned from the user query) - can anybody  
help?

How did you wok this out. I am a Rails newbie and I am currently  
working with this same issue.

Thanks,
