I have created a pagination with my own conditions :

@timesheets\_pages = Paginator.new self, count, 30, @params[‘page’]

```
@timesheets = Timesheet.find :all,:include 

```

=\>{:employee=\>[:location,:division]},  
:conditions =\> ["employees.location=?  
and employees.division=? and start\_date\>? and end\_date \< ?  
",@location.id,@division.id,@start\_date,@end\_date],  
:order=\> “timesheets.start\_date  
desc”,  
:limit =\>  
@timesheets\_pages.items\_per\_page,  
:offset =\>  
@timesheets\_pages.current.offset

Where is the best place to store the filter parameters  
(@location,@division,@start\_date,@end\_date) of the find? Each time the  
find is run it must recall the params of the find. I’m currently storing  
them in the session. What is the best way?

Thanks,  
Chris
