Hi RoR Developers I got tiny problem here. Actually I asked before but there was not any answer and asking again. I have template.yml file.] get\_config=YAML.load(File.open("…/template.yml")) $temp1path=get\_config[“template”][“templatename1”] I can get the values by using matrix one by one like above but how can I list only right side I mean this is my template.yml file template: templatename1: template\_of\_roster.xml templatename2: template\_of\_roster1.xml templatename3: template\_of\_roster2.xml templatename4: template\_of\_roster3.xml only this column. template\_of\_roster.xml template\_of\_roster1.xml template\_of\_roster2.xml template\_of\_roster3.xml thank you for any help or commend. ---

You’ll probably find that get\_config.class == Hash so you can get the values with: get\_config[“template”].values which gives you an Array over which you could iterate with .each -Rob Rob B.

I have selection which is taken these values. \<% templateOptions = “” @templates.each do |i| templateOptions = templateOptions + “#{i}” end %\> \<%=select\_tag “templates”, templateOptions %\> thank you very much again… ---
