Hello,

I have this model

Item  
has\_many :tasks

Task  
belongs\_to :item

```
I have a filter

```

@task\_pages, @tasks =paginate :tasks, :per\_page =\> 10, :conditions  
=\> ["company\_id = ?’, company\_id]

```
How can I use a set of Items to return some records in Tasks, and

```

use it in Paginate?

```
 Item.find (:all, :conditions => ['model = ?','KJ-393'])

 and paginate just the tasks thar belongs to this Items?

```

Thank you
