Hi,

I have a controller called students\_controller.rb

From a view file i am calling the index method by the URL like,

students\_path(:format =\> :json)

I have no problem in that. But i want to pass the teacher\_id as the  
parameter. Like,

students\_path(:format =\> :json, :teacher\_id =\> 5)

The problem here is, the parameter is passing as,

“amp;teacher\_id” =\> “5”

I want to get the correct params. Is there any way to pass correctly?

Thanks in advance.
